PC WRmt: Mail Installation Prompts for User Data Disk (97080)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows 3.2
This article was previously published under Q97080 SUMMARY
The installation process for version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail Remote for
Windows prompts you to install the Mail Remote data files.
This disk is not provided with Mail Remote for Windows. Your mail
administrator uses the Mail Administrator program (ADMIN.EXE) included
with version 3.0 or 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks to create
the data files appropriate for your system.
MORE INFORMATION
The user data files can be stored on a floppy disk, in a directory on
your local hard disk, or on a file server. When you are prompted for
the disk during installation, enter the full path to the directory in
which the files are stored. This field supports the Universal Naming
Convention (UNC) so you can enter the name of the server immediately
before the name of the file (for example, \\SEATTLE\MAIL\REMOTE). If
your network supports UNC, Mail automatically creates a link to that
server and location.
To create the data files in the ADMIN.EXE program, select the REMOTE
option from the main menu. Select either INIT-DISK to create a new
disk for the remote user, or select UPDATE-DISK to quickly update an
existing remote user data disk.
For more information on the administrative issues related to setting
up remote client users, please refer to chapter 11 of the Microsoft
Mail for PC Networks "Administrator's Guide" for version 3.0.
