Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Getting Started:
Installation and Configuration

Using the Shared Network Installation Utility

The Shared Network Installation Utility updates each client machine with all system files, icons, and registry entries that are necessary for launching OpenEdge locally. Each client shares the networked copy of OpenEdge.

To perform an OpenEdge Shared Network Installation on your client machine:

From the Start menu, choose Run. The Run dialog box appears. Enter this command in the Run dialog box:

drive:\destination path\netsetup\setup.exe

Where the destination path is the same path where OpenEdge is installed on the server machine.

Choose OK. The Shared Network Installation Utility dialog box appears:



A network installation directory path appears.

Choose the default group name or type a different name in the Group Name field. If the group name does not already exist, the install utility adds the group name to your system’s Program menu.
Choose a working directory. The working directory is where OpenEdge places the databases and programs you create.
Choose Finish. You can access OpenEdge from the network.
