You will receive a final message box requesting that Windows be restarted. Click

Restart

Windows.

Your PC will now be available as a Proxy Host whenever you start Windows.

System File Modifications During Installation

During installation from Windows, certain modifications will be made to your system files:

When the FastLink II Client is installed, a line is added to your AUTOEXEC.BAT that loads a

Novell program called DPMS.EXE, if it is not there already.

DPMS is an extended memory driver that allows the FastLink II driver to reduce its DOS footprint

dramatically.

When the Novell NetWare files are installed, the following changes are made to accommodate VLM

installations:

−−

In CONFIG.SYS,

lastdrive=z

is inserted, or existing

lastdrive

settings are modified to

lastdrive=z

−−

In WIN.INI,

nwpopup.exe

is inserted in the [Windows] section

−−

In SYSTEM.INI, various items are inserted for the VLM client

When the Proxy Master is installed, no changes will be made to your system files.

When the Proxy Host is installed, your SYSTEM.INI file is modified as follows:

−−

In the [boot] section — user.exe=user.exe changes to user.exe=phostusr.exe. This

allows Proxy to control your display, keyboard, and mouse when Windows starts, and

launches PHOSTWIN.

−−

In the [386enh] section — device=prxv.vxd is added for Windows 3.x.

−−

A [Proxy Host] section is added to record settings for Proxy.

In Windows 95, Proxy Host is added to the Add/Remove Programs area in your Control Panel; if

selected, this will remove the Proxy Host from your PC.

NOTE: Modified system files such as WIN.INI, SYSTEM.INI, AUTOEXEC.BAT, and

CONFIG.SYS will be backed up with numbered extensions (e.g., AUTOEXEC.BAT

renamed to AUTOEXEC.000).
