******************
Installation notes
******************

To use this software, you must have a WinSock 1.1 
compliant TCP/IP stack installed.

1) Copy the files in this archive to a directory.
2) Move the CTL3D.DLL to your Windows System directory, unless
   there already is a copy there.
3) Run the ID.EXE program.
4) For help on customizing ID, use the on-line Help command.


***************
Troubleshooting
***************

If you can't start ID at all, please check:

1) Do you have a Winsock 1.1 compliant TCP/IP stack? 
   I.e. can you run other Winsock compliant programs?
2) Do you have CTL3D.DLL in your Windows System directory?
   You should not keep copies of this file other places on
   your harddisk.
3) Do you run another finger and/or identification daemon?
   ID should run even if one of the ports (finger or ident)
   are busy, but will refuse to run if both are taken.


**************
Known problems
**************

You can run into problems if ID gets several requests at
the same time, and 'Resolve client names' is turned on.
Temporary solution: Turn off 'Resolve client names'

ID will not work with a 'nullsock', e.g. mozock.dll from
Netscape Communications. This is because ID is a server.
Servers open a socket ('connection') at startup time.
A 'nullsock' will report 'Network is down' and the server
application fails.

The Microsoft 3D Custom Controls (Ctl3D) have some problems
with iconizing a dialog box. You will notice that the
minimize arrow in the main window (which is a dialog box)
moves when pushed. Ctl3D will also draw a 3D border around
the icon when ID is minimized.

I just didn't think it was worthwhile to add any code just
for these beauty flaws. Please let me know if this bothers
you in any way.


*************
Compatibility
*************

ID has been tested with:
- MS-DOS 6.20 / Windows 3.1
- OS/2 Warp Server
- Trumpet Winsock 2.0b
- Trumpet Winsock 2.1f


*********
Windows9x
*********

ID is not written for Windows9x. Although it may run under
this system, I will not recommend it. Because server
applications run continuosly waiting for connections,
all server apps under Windows 9x should be 32 bit.

There will not be a 32 bit version of ID.
