Apple AppleShare IP 6.0 - Manual (Page 11)

Installing AppleShare IP 6.0 11
m Disk space: You need approximately 25 megabytes (MB) of disk space to install all of the
AppleShare IP 6.0 software. For the best server performance, you may want to install one
or more server programs on a separate computer.
For example, by installing the Web & File software on one server and the print and mail
software on another, you can “balance the load” on AppleShare IP 6.0 services. This
practice often improves performance and reliability for high-volume services.
Alternatively, you may want to install all AppleShare IP software on one server, and other
server applications—for example, backup software or a gateway or router—on another
server.
Note: For instructions on moving the Mail Server after it has been installed, see the Mail
Server section in AppleShare IP Help.
m Memory: You need 48 MB of memory with virtual memory turned on to run all of the
AppleShare IP servers simultaneously. To run all of the AppleShare IP servers without
turning on virtual memory, you need a minimum of 64 MB of random-access memory
(RAM).
To run each server on a separate computer, you need at least 32 MB of RAM with virtual
memory turned on.
m System software: Mac OS 8.1 or later. (If your computer is using an earlier version of
system software, follow the instructions in “Installing Mac OS 8.1” when you reach
page 13.)

AppleShare IP 6.0 server, you need to follow the instructions in this manual to install and set
up AppleShare IP 6.0 on the new server. Then follow the instructions for moving shared
folders in the Web & File section in AppleShare IP Help.
Important Be sure to check the AppleShare IP 6.0 license agreement (you can print it
when you install AppleShare IP) for restrictions on installing the AppleShare IP software
using one serial number
