RESOLUTION

To manually install the client applications, install the client applications from CD-ROM. To do this, use the following procedure:

For Small Business Server 4.0 and Small Business Server 4.0a Installations

1. Insert Small Business Server 4.0 or 4.0a CD-ROM number 2 in the CD-ROM drive of the client computer.
2. Locate the "MS" folder on the root of the CD-ROM. For each application, run the appropriate Setup program from the appropriate subdirectory under the \MS directory. Installation points are as follows:
   • * \MS\Exchange directory. This is the Exchange 5.0 client. It is recommended that you install Outlook 98 or 2000 on the client instead of this application. To install, run Setup.exe.
   • * \MS\Fax. For instructions on installing the Small Business Server Fax Client, see the following:

   • * \MS\Outlook\i386. Run Setup.exe from this folder to install Outlook 97. Do not run this program if you have a newer version of Outlook already installed.
   • * \MS\Proxy. Run Setup.exe to install the Proxy 1.0 client. Do not install this program if your Small Business Server is running Proxy 2.0. To install the Proxy 2.0 client, run the command \\<SBSSERVER>\Mspclnt\Setup.exe
     
     where <SBSSERVER> is the name of your Small Business Server.

For Small Business Server 4.5 Installations
