Server software works well on Windows 98 or higher, which includes Win98SE, WinME and WinXP. It has not been tested on Windows 95. It also works on Windows NT 4 or higher, which includes Windows 2000. It will not work in Operating systems other than Windows.
There are separate setup files of client software to be installed in Windows 98 and Windows NT. The Client setup file for Windows 98 will work on Win98SE, WinME and WinXP. The Client setup file for Windows NT will work on Windows NT 4 and Windows 2000.
During installation, you may sometimes get a message that a certain ".dll" file could not be Regestered properly, or the Entry point was not found. In such cases, you should click "Ignore" to continue installation. This will cause no problem. This happens if you have multiple program running during installation, and one or more of those programs are using the specified ".dll" file. To prevent such message, it is recommended to close maximum number of programs before beginning installation. However, in Windows NT, such messages may sometimes be unavoidable, especially with files such as Asycfilt.dll, and Iphlpapi.dll. But it will cause no problem.
You can straightaway start configuring the software after installation, but restart is recommended.
Always install and configure Server software before starting installation of client. This is useful as mentioned in the "Configuration" section.
Installation begins.
You will be prompted to read the readme and the liscence file. Please read it carefully.
Then you will be prompted to choose the directory where you want to install TNIUT server. Choose a different directory if you don't want to install TNIUT in the default directory.
Then all the other things will run automatically.
Setup will create icons in the start menu, and in the desktop. It is recommended that you restart windows before running program.
During setup, a messagebox appears saying "Error in registering *.dll (or *.ocx or *.tlb), a copy of the file is running" (where * = name of the file) or something like this. If message like this appears when you are installing TNIUT, you just ignore the message and continue with installation, and restart the computer after installation. The mentioned *.dll file was replaced by a newer *.dll file and since the older version was present in the memory, the message appears.
