About the files on this disk:
The OS/2 Installation disk contains two directories:
1) \SVR_SVC which includes the server service install
program and the OS/2 services.
2) \BJ_CLNT which includes BLACKJAC.EXE and CARDS.DLL.
The INSTALL.EXE program in the \SVR_SVC directory is a
Windows program that installs the included services on remote
OS/2 LAN Manager servers. The BJSVR.EXE and PERFSVR.EXE
files in the SRV_SVC directory are the OS/2 LAN Manager services.
These services are used in conjunction with the Windows
applications included in the toolkit such as the performance
meter, the alarm station, and the blackjack client.
The files in the \BJ_CLNT directory are the client side
pieces of a blackjack network game. Install the
blackjack service on a remote server and then multiple
Windows clients can play in the same blackjack game.
The INSTALL.EXE program does *NOT* copy any files to your
local computer. It copies the LAN Manager services to the
remote LAN Manager server you choose. To copy the source code
and examples (including the client pieces of the blackjack
game) from this disk to your local hard disk, you can use the
Windows File Manager. VBRUN100.DLL must be in your path to
run the install program. If you have already installed the
other disks in the toolkit, VBRUN100.DLL will already be in
your path.
You run the service install program from Windows. To start
Install:
1. Insert Disk 1 in drive A or B.
2. In the Program Manager, choose Run from the File menu.
3. Type A:\SVR_SVC\INSTALL.EXE or B:\SVR_SVC\INSTALL.EXE
4. Follow the Setup instructions in the dialog box on the
screen.
The dialog box provides selection of the remote server and
which services to install. You must have administrative
privilege to be able to install a service. The dialog also
includes Install, Auto Start, and Start Now options. These
options are described in the following paragraphs.
Install
The Installation process modifies the LANMAN.INI file on the
server. These changes include the addition of a line in the
[services] section and the addition of the service name on the
srvservices line if you select the auto start option. The
original LANMAN.INI file is saved as LANMAN.OLD.
Auto Start
The auto start option control if the service will start when
the server service starts. LAN Manager automatically starts
the perfsvr service each time the server starts
if you select this option. There is a known bug in starting
both the perfsvr service and the blackjack service when the server
starts. Start the blackjack service using the NET START BLACKJACK
command.
Start Now
This option starts the service as soon as you install it on
the server.
