This is what you need to know in order to install TapeWare: 
-----------------------------------------------------------
TapeWare 6.1 requires that your SCSI adapter's ASPI driver be
loaded and that the adapter and all devices are functioning properly
before TapeWare is installed. In NetWare, or Windows 95/98/NT cannot 
see the device, TapeWare can't see it either.
 
Steps to install: 
-----------------

If you have not already done so, copy the self-extracting file you
downloaded to a TWINS directory on your network file server. This will
give all users access to the various TapeWare platforms. UnZip the
file by entering <filename> -o -d, e.g. tw61all -o -d.

Windows 95/98/NT - If you are running Windows 95, Windows 98, or
Windows NT
4.00, run Setup.

If you need to copy the Windows version to another server or
workstation, copy SETUP.EXE, the WIN directory, and the contents of
the WIN directory to the target machine.

NetWare - To start the installation process, enter LOAD
SYS:TWINS/INSTALL at the server console.

If you need to copy the NetWare version to another server, copy
INSTALL.NLM, the NET directory, and the contents of the NET directory
to a temporary install directory on the target NetWare server.

DOS - To start the installation process, enter INSTALL from the
installation directory.  

If you need to copy the DOS version to a DOS workstation, copy
INSTALL.EXE, the DOS directory, and the contents of the DOS
directory to a temporary install directory on your workstation.

UPGRADE NOTE: If this is an upgrade from TapeWare 6.0, installation
will auto detect your current configuration and offer to upgrade the
software.

You will be asked if this is an evaluation version of TapeWare 6.1, If
it is, answer "Yes" and continue with the installation.

If installing the Windows version, enter your name and Company name.

Select the proper transport for your network: IPX, TCP/IP or No
network. If you select "No network" you will not be able to
communicate with other work stations or servers.

Now select "Create a Storage Management Zone" and either give the Zone
a name, or accept the default name. Don't skip this step. Don't say
you want to "join a Zone." NO Zone exists at this point and TapeWare
will NOT function properly.

Complete the installation, and when through, start TapeWare: 

	1. Windows 95/98/NT click on the desktop icon. 
	2. NetWare enter TWADMIN at the server console. 
	3. DOS change to the TapeWare directory and enter TWADMIN.

Click, or press Enter, on the "Storage Management Zone" box to make
sure a Zone exists. If the Zone exists continue to login; if not,
reinstall TapeWare following the above instructions. 

The default login name is ADMIN. There is no password. 

Install the remaining Platforms and select "Join an existing Storage
Management Zone" when asked. Choose the Zone you created during the
initial installation.

Windows NT Users:
-----------------

If you want to install an Evaluation copy of TapeWare's Microsoft SQL
Server Agent, or Microsoft Exchange Server Agent, either continue, or
restart, the installation. Select "Install Option" from the Setup
menu. Install either the "SQL Agent" and/or the "Exchange Agent."

You will be asked if this is an Evaluation copy. If you answer "Yes" 
the Keycode is automatically inserted.
