Installing AppleWorks 5

Install AppleWorks on a network server so that multiple users can run one
copy of the application.

Warning

You may install AppleWorks on a network that is accessible by

multiple computers only if you have either (1) installed software that locks
out any concurrent users in excess of the number of licensed copies of
AppleWorks, or (2) paid for an authorized, licensed copy of AppleWorks for
each computer connected to the network. Contact Apple or an authorized
Apple reseller if you need to license additional copies of AppleWorks.

Setting up for installation from a server

Once you set up the AppleWorks Installer on a server, users can install
AppleWorks from the server onto their own computers.

Setting up the Installer on a server

To set up the Installer so users can install AppleWorks onto their own
computers from a server:

1.

On the server, create a folder named awinstal, or AppleWorks Installation, or
some similar name.

2.

Open the new folder, and then copy the AppleWorks Installer files to the new
folder.

1

To set up server installation from a CD-ROM: put the CD-ROM disc
into the CD-ROM drive. From the window that opens, drag all of the
AppleWorks installation files into the folder. (If the window for the
CD-ROM disc doesn’t open automatically, in My Computer or Windows
Explorer, double-click the icon for the CD-ROM drive.)

1

To set up server installation from floppy disks: insert

Disk 1

into the

floppy disk drive. When the

Disk 1

icon appears on the screen, drag it into the

folder. This creates a folder named

Disk 1

that contains the contents of the

disk. Repeat this step for the rest of the Installer disks.

The installation folder is now set up for users to install AppleWorks over the
network. Your users can double-click the

awinstal

or

Disk 1

folder to open it

on the server, and then double-click the Setup.exe icon to start the
installation.
