Netware Instructions:

Instructions

  • Verify Java Runtime (JRE):

    FRP requires a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.4.2 or higher installed on your Netware sever. Most probably that your Netware server already has a JRE installed, you can verify that by simply opening a Terminal window and type: java -version
    If you don't have Java on your Netware server, please look at the Novell web site for instructions on how to install Java.

  • Download the frpro.jar file.  The frpro.jar file has a JAR extension, but IE saves it as a ZIP file. Firefox and Mozilla save the JAR file properly. If you are using IE, rename the downloaded file to frpro.jar
  • Copy the frpro.jar file to a NetWare share and from a NetWare console run the following command:
  •  "java -jar sys:\frpro.jar"

    Be sure to use the correct path to the frpro.jar file

  • Follow the installation wizard.
  • Verify Startup Scripts (NCF files):

    The installer should create three important NetWare NCF files in FRP home directory:
    FRPHelp.NCF
    FRPMgmt.NCF
    FRPRep.NCF

    Please verify that these files have been created.

  • Optional steps:

    By putting the three NCF files in SYS:\System you can start FRP by just typing FRPRep or FRPMgmt or FRPHelp at the Netware system console.

    You can also edit your autoexec.ncf to automatically start these 3 NCFs when your system comes up.

Notes

  • You need to install a Java 1.4.2 (or later) virtual machine. You can download one from Sun's Java web site or contact your OS manufacturer.
  • If you do not have a Java virtual machine installed, be sure to download the package above which includes one. Otherwise you may need to download one from Sun's Java web site or contact your OS manufacturer.
  • The remote browser in the edit job screen cannot find volumes other than SYS. Copy/paste or hand type the full path for the source and destination paths. Use the drive letter or volume name.
    Examples: MYVOLUME:/MYFOLDER
    or
    C:/MYFOLDER
