GENERAL INFORMATION
ŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽŽ
The NetDoor installation creates a group icon labelled
'NetDoor' on your desktop. Here's a brief summary of
what you will find in your NetDoor group:
 
  o README
 
    This is the file you are reading now.  It
    was opened automatically when you started
    NetDoor for the first time.
 
  o Open NetDoor
 
    "Open NetDoor" (OPENDOOR) connects you to the
    NetDoor environment. It runs automatically
    when you restart your system unless you
    removed the OPENDOOR icon from the StartUp group.
    In this case, you can start Open NetDoor
    by double-clicking on its icon in the NetDoor
    group.
 
  o NetDoor Catalog
 
    The "NetDoor Catalog" (CATALOG) shows all the
    available applications stored on servers.
    Using NetDoor you can easily use these applications
    without installing them on your workstation.
 
    Using the "NetDoor Catalog" you can:
      - Search for an application in the Catalog.
      - Browse information about an application.
      - Add applications from the NetDoor environment
        to your workstation. When you add an application,
        NetDoor creates a program icon on your desktop for
        accessing the application, and configures your
        workstation for using it.
      - Start applications directly from the
        catalog. This is possible only for those
        applications that do not require special
        workstation configuration.
 
  o NetDoor Maintenance
 
    "NetDoor Maintenance" (MAINT) is a facility
    which allows the NetDoor environment to keep
    your system up to date automatically.
    When something is upgraded or changed in the
    NetDoor environment, your administartor uses
    MAINT to apply these changes, called fixes,
    to your workstation.
 
    MAINT starts automatically when Open NetDoor
    starts. If you do not want MAINT to run,
    set the Open NetDoor options accordingly.
 
  o Change Password
 
    "Change Password" allows you to change your
    network password on multiple domains, or to
    query the password age on any of the domains.
 
  o NetDoor Startup
 
    "NetDoor Startup" is a folder, not a program
    object.  It allows you to control which
    NetDoor programs are automatically started
    when you connect to NetDoor.  (It works in
    much the same way as the Windows StartUp group.)
 
    If there are NetDoor applications that you
    would like to have started automatically each
    time you connect to NetDoor, place a shadow of
    the object in this folder and NetDoor will
    start the program automatically for you in the
    future.
 
  o NetDoor User's Guide for Windows
 
    This icon refers to the Library Reader for Windows
    to access the online copy of the User's Guide.
 
    You may use CATALOG to install Library Reader
    to view all of the online books provided with
    NetDoor.
