Copy the files from the appropriate Netfinity Manager directory. For example, when creating a source directory to distribute Netfinity Manager for OS/2, copy all of the files from the OS2/MANAGER directory into the source directory. After an installation source directory has been created, use a response file and the Netfinity Manager installation program command-line parameters. The Netfinity Manager installation program supports the following command-line parameters: /R: drive+path+filename Specifies the drive, path, and file name of the response file. See the NETFBASE.RSP file (located in the directory in which Netfinity Manager was installed) for an example of a response file with comments on the included parameters. /S: drive+path Specifies the drive and path to install from. This is the directory to which the files were copied. /T: drive Specifies the drive to install to. Default is the current startup drive. /TU: drive+path Specifies the drive and path of the CONFIG.SYS file to update. The default is to change the CONFIG.SYS in the root directory of the drive specified in the /T parameter (or the startup drive). This parameter is ignored if the ChangeConfig parameter in the response file is FALSE. For example, the line: NETFINST /R:NETFBASE.RSP /S:Y:\NETFIN /T:C /TU:D:\ will install Netfinity Manager, using the options in the response file NETFBASE.RSP, from the directory Y:\NETFIN, to drive C: (the directory to which the files are installed is taken from the response file), and will modify the CONFIG.SYS file in the D:\ directory.

Customized installation For security reasons, not all users might need to have access to all services. User access can be restricted by creating a customized installation that will prevent some services from being installed. To create a customized installation, the INSTALL.INI file must be edited. For example, when creating a customized Netfinity Manager for Windows 95 or NT installation, edit the INSTALL.INI file that is found on Netfinity Manager directory. The INSTALL.INI file has three sections, separated by the line Netfinity Manager 105

3.
Copy the files from the appropriate Netfinity Manager directory.
For example, when creating a source directory to distribute Netfinity Manager
for OS/2, copy all of the files from the OS2/MANAGER directory into the
source directory.
After an installation source directory has been created, use a response file and the
Netfinity Manager installation program command-line parameters. The Netfinity
Manager installation program supports the following command-line parameters:
/R:
drive+path+filename
Specifies the drive, path, and file name of the response file. See the
NETFBASE.RSP file (located in the directory in which Netfinity Manager
was installed) for an example of a response file with comments on the
included parameters.
/S:
drive+path
Specifies the drive and path to install
from
. This is the directory to which
the files were copied.
/T:
drive
Specifies the drive to install
to
. Default is the current startup drive.
/TU:
drive+path
Specifies the drive and path of the CONFIG.SYS file to update. The default
is to change the CONFIG.SYS in the root directory of the drive specified in
the /T parameter (or the startup drive). This parameter is ignored if the
ChangeConfig
parameter in the response file is FALSE.
For example, the line:
NETFINST /R:NETFBASE.RSP /S:Y:\NETFIN
/T:C /TU:D:\
will install Netfinity Manager, using the options in the response file
NETFBASE.RSP, from the directory Y:\NETFIN, to drive C: (the directory
to which the files are installed is taken from the response file), and will
modify the CONFIG.SYS file in the D:\ directory.
Note:
For information on how to use a CID-enabled software distribution
manager, refer to the publications provided with the individual CID-enabled
product.
Customized installation
For security reasons, not all users might need to have access to all services. User
access can be restricted by creating a customized installation that will prevent
some services from being installed.
To create a customized installation, the INSTALL.INI file must be edited. For
example, when creating a customized Netfinity Manager for Windows 95 or NT
installation, edit the INSTALL.INI file that is found on Netfinity Manager directory.
The INSTALL.INI file has three sections, separated by the line
