Description of Switches
NOTE: The switches described in this article are not case sensitive, you can type them in uppercase or lowercase with the same results.
/a - This switch is a generic Setup.exe switch that is not used with the Proxy Server 2.0 installation; it displays the message "This mode is not supported."
/g - If you use the
setup.exe /g c:\logs\install.log syntax,
Setup creates a log file named Install.log in the C:\Logs folder. This switch can be used in combination with other switches.
/q - The
/q,
/q0,
/q1, and
/qT switches peform "Quiet mode" installations of Proxy Server 2.0.
NOTE: Although all of the
/q switches seem to work correctly, Proxy Server 2.0 is not installed completely because user input is required for cache settings, the cache file location, local address table (LAT) entries, Proxy client configuration settings, and enabling Access Control on the Winsock Proxy and Web Proxy services.
You should not use the
/q switches to install Proxy Server 2.0.
/r - This switch will reinstall the MS Proxy Server 2.0 files without having to first remove the existing files. The installer is still prompted to enter in LAT table settings, caching preferences, etc. This switch can also be used in combination with other switches.
/u - This switch uninstalls Proxy Server 2.0, including all Proxy Server 2.0 files except shared files. The
/us switch removes all Proxy Server 2.0 files, including shared files. This switch can be used in combination with other switches.
NOTE: There is no difference in the files that are uninstalled when you use the
/u and
/ua switches. Both switches also remove all Proxy Server-related entries from the System.ini file and the registry.
/y - This switch does not copy any of the Proxy Server 2.0 files to the hard disk; it only adds Proxy Server configuration information to the System.ini file and the registry. This switch can be used in combination with other switches.
The following undocumented switch also works for installing Proxy Server 2.0:
/k - CD Key command-line option. Use this switch for automatically entering the product CD Key. The syntax for this is
setup.exe /k "xxxxxxxxxx"
where
xxxxxxxxxx is the 10-digit CD Key on the back of the Proxy Server 2.0 installation CD-ROM case. The CD Key value must be enclosed in quotation marks and must not contain a hyphen.
