------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Norton pcANYWHERE/Host on Floppies ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Although pcANYWHERE IV/Host (4.0Xx) & 4.5 were not designed to be run from floppy diskette, it is possible to do so. Please see the lists below for disks and requirements. pcANYWHERE IV (4.0Xx) Host: 3.5" Diskette 5.25" Diskette ============= ============== 720K 1.44MB 360K 1.2MB ---- ------ ---- ----- aw.trm aw.trm AWHOVL1.EXE aw.trm awci.cnf awci.cnf AWH.MSG awci.cnf awdvr_c.ovl awdvr_c.ovl AWDVR_C.OVL awdvr_c.ovl awdvr_g.ovl awdvr_g.ovl AW.TRM awdvr_g.ovl awh.msg awh.msg AWHW.CNF awh.msg awhc.cnf awhc.cnf AWHC.CNF awhc.cnf awhost.exe awhost.exe AWCI.CNF awhost.exe awhovl1.exe awhovl1.exe awhovl1.exe awhw.cnf awhw.cnf awhw.cnf awlogoff.exe awlogoff.exe awlogoff.exe awsend.exe awsend.exe awsend.exe awsend.ovl awsend.ovl awsend.ovl btrieve.exe btrieve.exe btrieve.exe pcANYWHERE 4.5 Host: 3.5" Diskette 5.25" Diskette ============= ============== 720K 1.44MB 360K 1.2MB ---- ------ ---- ----- AW.HC1 AW.HC1 AWHOVL1.EXE AW.HC1 AW.HW1 AW.HW1 AWH.MSG AW.HW1 AW.TRM AW.TRM AWDVR_C.OVL AW.TRM AWDVR_0.OVL AWDVR_0.OVL AW.TRM AWDVR_0.OVL AWDVR_1.OVL AWDVR_1.OVL AW.HW1 AWDVR_1.OVL AWDVR_C.OVL AWDVR_C.OVL AW.HC1 AWDVR_C.OVL AWDVR_G.OVL AWDVR_G.OVL AW.CI1 AWDVR_G.OVL AWH.MSG AWH.MSG AWH.MSG AWHOST.EXE AWHOST.EXE AWHOST.EXE AWHOVL1.EXE AWHOVL1.EXE AWHOVL1.EXE AWLOGOFF.EXE AWLOGOFF.EXE AWLOGOFF.EXE AWSEND.EXE AWSEND.EXE AWSEND.EXE AWSEND.OVL AWSEND.OVL AWSEND.OVL BTRIEVE.EXE BTRIEVE.EXE BTRIEVE.EXE For best results, please install pcANYWHERE to a hard disk first, then copy these files over to your floppy diskette. Information for 5.25"/1.2MB, 3.5"/720K, 3.5"/1.44MB Formats: The above files for these disk formats can be installed with all features of pcANYWHERE 4.0Xx and 4.5. This includes system files, autoexec.bat and config.sys files. Once completed the AWHOST can be run normally by typing AWHOST.EXE. If you plan to have the computer accessed with no user involvement, make sure to enable the Reboot on Disconnect or Reboot Always features found under Preferences. Please add the following to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to allow pcANYWHERE to start automatically: PATH=%PATH%;A:\AW; AWHOST -M=(A for "Exit, Allow Incoming Calls" or W for "Wait For A Connection") Information for 5.25"/360K Formats: The files listed on the previous page are the minimum files required for pcANYWHERE to operate. Special operation instructions are required in order for this to run properly. Please read the following completely before copying the host files to the floppy diskette. = The first step to working with pcANYWHERE 4.0Xx or 4.5 on 5.25"/360K diskettes is to install and pre-configure pcANYWHERE before transferring the files to the diskette. = Second, make sure the files work by having a few remote control sessions before transferring the files to the diskette. Once copied, the files on this diskette can not be be re-configured. If you wish to reconfigure your hardware or caller information files, you must refer to the hard disk installed copy of pcANYWHERE. = Third, copy the files listed under 5.25"/360K on the previous page to the diskette, 4.0Xx and 4.5 respectively. Please notice that the main AWHOST.EXE file is not one of the files transferred to the diskette. Do not copy AWHOST.EXE to the diskette, doing so will leave your diskette with no room for the other files. If you plan to have the computer accessed without user involvement, make sure to enable the Reboot on Disconnect or Reboot Always features found under Preferences. Please add the following to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to allow pcANYWHERE to start automatically: PATH=%PATH%;A:\AW; AWHOST -M=(A for "Exit, Allow Incoming Calls" or W for "Wait For A Connection") Once this is completed, your pcANYWHERE floppy diskette is ready to be used and will be executed every time the machine is rebooted. 4.0Xx Notes: This version is completely usable for serial commu- nications. The only feature removed for space is the INT 14 driver. If you plan to use the INT 14 driver for communications you must first remove the AWDVR_C.OVL and copy the AWDVR_G.OVL to the diskette. Remember to configure everything prior to copying all the necessary files to the floppy diskette. You will not be able to change these configura- tions on the floppy diskette. AWSEND and AWLOGOFF are not available. This means no file transfers and typing AWLOGOFF at the host DOS will be ineffective. To disconnect from a session, you must use the REMOTE hot key menu option "End Session." 4.5 Notes: Unlike the 4.0Xx version of this floppy setup, the 4.5 version does not include the INT 14, mouse support or maximized screen display speed options. Selecting these options will cause pcANYWHERE to error upon initialization. If you plan to use the INT 14 driver for communications you must first remove the AWDVR_C.OVL and copy the AWDVR_G.OVL to the diskette. Remember to configure everything prior to copying all the necessary files to the floppy diskette. You will not be able to change these configurations on the floppy diskette. AWSEND and AWLOGOFF are not available. This means no file transfers and typing AWLOGOFF at the host DOS will be ineffective. To disconnect from a session, you must use the REMOTE hot key menu option "End Session." Other Information: For formats other than 5.25"/360K, you may remove any installed options for space and/or security reasons. Remember, you must keep at least one AWDVR file for communications, it must be the one that you plan to use. The list of available options and communications drivers are as follows: AWSEND.EXE File transfer executable program. AWSEND.OVL POP-UP file transfer overlay TSR. AWLOGOFF.EXE Session disconnect executable program. AWDVR_0.OVL Maximize Screen Display Speed overlay file. (4.5 only) AWDVR_1.OVL Mouse overlay file. (4.5 only) You must have at least one of the following files: AWDVR_C.OVL Serial communications overlay file. AWDVR_G.OVL INT 14 communications overlay file. _______________________________________________________________________________ SYMANTEC has a number of useful documents that are available through this BBS.
