Getting Started

NetShield must be installed on every server you want to be protected. (Since NetShield is licensed per server, please refer to your licensing agreement in order to ensure proper legal compliance.)

•	If installing from CD-ROM, use the XCOPY /S command to copy the files into a working directory on your PC.

•	If installing from BBS Release, unzip the files into a working directory on your PC.

Begin the install by typing SETUP.


CD-ROM

Follow this procedure to install NetShield from CD-ROM.

•	Place the CD in your CD drive.

•	Copy the files (using the XCOPY /S command) to a working directory on your PC.

•	Begin the install by typing SETUP at the DOS prompt, or (from Windows) choosing File | Run from the Program Manager and Browse for SETUP.EXE.

UPGRADE NOTE: If you are currently running a previous version of NetShield, the NLMs must be unloaded from the file server. At the File Server Console, type UNLOAD NETSHLD

SFT III SERVERS NOTE: Be sure to install NetShield on the MS engine.

All of the relevant patches for Novell NetWare 3.X Servers, including the AIOCOMX.NLM Utility, are on the CD-ROM. Install them if you will be using NetWare 3.11 or NetWare 3.12.

NOTE: Be sure to down the server before installing CLIB.NLM. Refer to Novell NetWare 3.X Servers for more information.

NOTE: Do not install these patches if you are running a NetWare 4.X server.

The log file INS220.LOG will be created and placed in your Windows directory. The log file is an ASCII file listing the location of the NetShield installation. The log file also lists any errors that occurred during the installation. If an error that prevents the completion of the install process occurs, the log file will be displayed automatically.


BBS Release

Follow this procedure to install NetShield from BBS Release.

•	Download the zip file (and any required patches if you are using Novell NetWare 3.X Servers).

•	Unzip the files (using the XCOPY /S command) to a working directory on your PC.

•	Begin the install by typing SETUP at the DOS prompt, or (from Windows) choosing File | Run from the Program Manager and Browse for SETUP.EXE.

UPGRADE NOTE: If you are currently running a previous version of NetShield, the NLMs must be unloaded from the file server. At the File Server Console, type UNLOAD NETSHLD

SFT III SERVERS NOTE: Be sure to install NetShield on the MS engine.

All of the relevant patches for Novell NetWare 3.X Servers, including the AIOCOMX.NLM Utility (for pager support) should installed if you will be using NetWare 3.11 or NetWare 3.12.

NOTE: Be sure to down the server before installing CLIB.NLM. Refer to Novell NetWare 3.X Servers for more information.

The log file INS220.LOG will be created and placed in your Windows directory. The log file is an ASCII file listing the location of the NetShield installation. The log file also lists any errors that occurred during the installation. If an error that prevents the completion of the install process occurs, the log file will be displayed automatically.


Novell NetWare 3.X Servers

NetShield requires some NetWare patch files for NetWare 3.11 and 3.12. Use the following recommended versions (in parentheses) or higher:

•	A3112.NLM (4.10A)

NOTE: AIOCOMX.NLM is required to use the pager notification option. Refer to “Enabling Pager Notification” in Chapter 5, “Notification and Reporting,” of your Using NetShield manual.

NetShield supplies these patches with the CD-ROM release. For BBS release users, Novell supplies these patches in the LIBUP4.EXE file. To obtain this file:

From McAfee, download it from the McAfee BBS under File Area “P” (for Patches), or from the mcafee.com FTP site in the pub/patches directory.

Copy these files to the SYS\SYSTEM directory on your NetWare 3.11 or 3.12 server. (When installing CLIB.NLM, the server must be downed.)

NOTE: Do not install these patches on a NetWare 4.X server.


AIOCOMX.NLM Utility

The AIOCOMX.NLM utility is required to use the pager notification with Novell NetWare 3.X Servers. This utility, along with the LIBUP4.EXE patch file, is supplied with the CD-ROM release. For BBS release users, the files can be obtained from

Novell. Refer to the Novlib Forum on CompuServe, the ftp.novell.com anonymous ftp site on the Internet, or other Novell on-line services.
