LAN Server Installation GUI

  This is a straightforward installation program for IBM LAN Server for OS/2.

  This program is provided "as is" in the hope that it may be useful.  It has
  a minimalist user interface and no online help.  However, it should be 
  relatively straightforward to use, at least for administrators who are
  passably familiar with IBM LAN Server.

  Many of the configuration options are esoteric.  If unsure, go with the
  default configuration, setting the server type as appropriate. 

  By default, this program looks for the IBM LAN Server install image on
  the specified CD-ROM drive, under the directory \CID\SERVER\IBMLS.

  You can also use this program to install LAN Server from a CID server or
  local disk.  In this case, you must copy SERVINST.EXE to the directory
  where the LAN Server install image is located (i.e. the same directory as
  LANINSTR.EXE), and run SERVINST.EXE with the /AUTO parameter.


Installation

  Copy SERVINST.EXE to wherever you want to run it from.  Copy SRVI_xx.MSG
  either to the same directory, or to a directory on %DPATH%.

  This program requires two run-time libraries: VROBJ.DLL and VROBJEX.DLL;
  these should be placed on the LIBPATH or else in the same directory as
  SERVINST.EXE.


Parameters

  SERVINST.EXE supports two optional arguments:

  /AUTO     This causes the program to look for the LAN Server product image
            in the current directory, rather than in the usual CD-ROM location. 

  /HPFS386  This option can only be used when installing LAN Server from
            OS/2 Warp Server v4 Advanced (original or SMP Feature edition).
            If specified, it will install the HPFS386 filesystem driver.  Note
            that OS/2 Warp Server for e-business (including the Convenience
            Package) does not include HPFS386; therefore, if you are installing
            that version of LAN Server, this argument will not work.
            ** IMPORTANT: HPFS386 cannot be used in conjunction with the
               EARLYMEMINIT=TRUE setting on modern OS/2 systems; consequently,
               use of this option is *not* recommended.
