refer to software scripts: \\unattended install \disk 5 • For NT4, you must now complete the driver information on disk 5 in the following files: \srvtype\lhx\ nt4srv.inf txtsetup.oem refer to software scripts: \\unattended install \disk 5 • On disk 5, edit the file: Autoexe.bat - You must enter the name of the server that will contain the shared file - ECHO SET NETSERVER=e800-TTDM>> A:\VARS.BAT. - You have just created a shared file with the following name: I NT4SRV. If you have used a different name, change at this line: ECHO SET NETSHARE=NT4SRV>> A:\VARS.BAT 2. Creating a *.dsk file from the Navigator CD • Go to the copydisk.exe utility, located on the HP Netserver Navigator CD under TTRC To create a disk image (*.dsk) of your disk and to copy it to the directory, please follow these steps: • Open a MS DOS window • Launch copydisk.exe using this syntax: Copydisk sourcedrive destinationpath where "sourcedrive" is a floppy disk drive on your PC that you would like to convert to a *.dsk file (e.g. A:\ ) and "destinationpath" is the destination drive. 3. Configuring a TFTP server to communicate with the TT_RCC To start the supplied TFTP server, the program "tftpserv.exe" must be executed on the server in a DOS window or using the Run command from the Windows Start menu: tftpserv.exe [root] where [root] indicates the base directory from which a client can retrieve files. If the root is not specified, the current working directory is used as the base directory. If you have already installed the Toptools Device Manager on one of your machines, that machine will automatically become a TFTP server. The directory from which a client can retrieve files is: \program files\hptt\data\packages\ A TFTP client can request files within the base directory or its subdirectories but does not have access to lower directories. The server software enables the base directory to act only as a file source, not as a file destination. • Insert the Navigator CD into the client. • Click Exit to close the Disk Library or Netserver Navigator screen. • Create a c:\tftp directory. • Using Explorer, navigate to and view the CDROM:\ttrc\us directory. • Copy the following file into the root of the C drive: tftpserv.exe (the executable program) 8

You must enter the name of the server that will contain the
shared
file - ECHO SET
NETSERVER=e800-TTDM>> A:\VARS.BAT.
-
You have just created a
shared
file with the following name:
NT4SRV. If you have used a different name, change at this line:
ECHO SET NETSHARE=NT4SRV>> A:\VARS.BAT
2. Creating a *.dsk file from the Navigator CD
• Go to the copydisk.exe utility, located on the HP Netserver Navigator CD under TTRC
To create a disk image (*.dsk) of your disk and to copy it to the directory, please follow these steps:
• Open a MS DOS window
• Launch copydisk.exe using this syntax:
Copydisk
sourcedrive destinationpath
where
“sourcedrive”
is a floppy disk drive on your PC that you would like to convert to a *.dsk
file (e.g. A:\ ) and
“destinationpath”
is the destination drive.
3. Configuring a TFTP server to communicate with the TT_RCC
To start the supplied TFTP server, the program “tftpserv.exe” must be executed on the server in a DOS
window or using the Run command from the Windows Start menu:
tftpserv.exe [root]
where
[root]
indicates the base directory from which a client can retrieve files. If the root is not
specified, the current working directory is used as the base directory.
If you have already installed the
Toptools Device Manager
on one of your machines, that machine
will automatically become a TFTP server. The directory from which a client can retrieve files is:
\program files\hptt\data\packages\
A TFTP client can request files within the base directory or its subdirectories but does not have access
to lower directories. The server software enables the base directory to act only as a file source, not
as a file destination.
Insert the
Navigator CD
into the client.
• Click
Exit
to close the
Disk Library or Netserver Navigator screen.
Create a c:\tftp directory.
• Using
Explorer
, navigate to and view the
CDROM:\ttrc
\us directory.
Copy the following file into the root of the C drive:
tftpserv.exe (the executable program)
