Self-Extracting File Name: confg7.exe Files Included Size Date Time ..\ CONFG7.TXT (This file) CONFG7.TXT 4193 3-24-97 1:51:24 pm CONFGNUT.NLM 50874 3-17-97 3:26:38 pm CONFIG.NLM 43998 3-17-97 3:48:50 pm Installation Instructions: Copy CONFIG.NLM and CONFGNUT.NLM to the SYS:SYSTEM directory of the server. At the console prompt type LOAD CONFIG or LOAD CONFGNUT and press return. CONFIG.NLM and CONFGNUT.NLM create a text file (CONFIG.TXT) in the SYS:SYSTEM directory. If CONFIG.TXT exists CONFIG.NLM will overwrite the file. CONFGNUT and CONFIG can append or overwrite CONFIG.TXT. CONFIG.NLM no longer creates its own SCREEN, so watch the SERVER CONSOLE SCREEN for CONFIG IS DONE or any other messages that CONFIG.NLM will post. By default CONFIG will not include the SYSTEM files or the SET parameters. LOAD CONFIG /d to include the SYSTEM file listings. LOAD CONFIG /s to include the SET parameters and LOAD CONFIG /a to append to CONFIG.TXT. LOAD CONFIG /ads to get set parameters, file listing, and append to CONFIG.TXT. CONFIG.TXT has a list of all the MODULES that were loaded on the server when CONFIG.NLM was run. It also has the contents of all NCF files on the default local drive and in the SYS:SYSTEM directory. It includes CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files for the server. A directory of SYS:SYSTEM and your local drive is also placed in CONFIG.TXT if /d is put on the command line. The SET parameters can be obtained by putting /s on the command line. On NW SFT III servers, load CONFIG or CONFGNUT in both IOENGINES and in the MSENGINE. When loading CONFIG on SFT III it is loaded 3 times. On the 2nd and 3rd times you load CONFIG be sure to use the /a to append to CONFIG.TXT. CONFGNUT is a GUI version and should be self explanatory. There are many more options available in CONFGNUT. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Any trademarks referenced in this document are the property of their respective owners.
