2.  Installation information
----------------------------

The CS Linux 6.2.0.1 client for Windows is packaged as zip file
containing a self-extracting .exe file and this README file.
The .exe file contains the client code and the licensing tool.


2.1  Hardware requirements
--------------------------

CS Linux client for Windows requires Pentium II or later 32-bit Intel system
supported by one of the Microsoft Windows operating systems listed in section
2.2.1 Operating system version.


2.2  Software requirements
--------------------------

2.2.1  Operating system version
-------------------------------------

This version of CS Linux client for Windows has been tested
with the following operating system versions.

  Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, Server, Advanced Server
  Microsoft Windows XP Professional
  Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition, Enterprise Edition



2.3  Installation process
-------------------------

2.3.1  Installing the Win32 Client
----------------------------------

To install the Win32 6.2.0.1 Client, complete the following steps.

-  Download the 6.2.0.1 Linux intel client PTF zip file from:

       ftp://ps.software.ibm.com/ps/products/cslinux/fixes/v6201

   then unzip it.

-  Copy the i_w32cli.exe file to your computer.
   The copy must be done in binary mode.  For example,
   use "ftp" with the binary mode command.

-  Run the i_w31cli.exe file which will unpack itself
   and start the installer program.

When the install has completed, you can delete the
i_w32cli.exe and .zip files from the working directory.


2.3.2  Installing the Win32 SDK
-------------------------------

To install the Win32 SDK, complete the steps above and, when prompted,
choose "Custom" as the Setup Type.  You can then select the SDK files
for installation.


2.3.3  Possible Errors
----------------------

If running i_w32cli.exe produces an error such as "This program cannot
be run in DOS mode.", this typically means that the i_w32cli.exe file
has been copied to your computer using an ASCII copy, not a binary copy.

Check the sizes of the file in the two locations.  If a binary copy was
done, they will be the same size; if the sizes are different, then try
the copy of the i_win32cli.exe file again.

If an install window is 'buried' or hidden underneath other windows,
use the ALT+TAB keyboard sequence to find the current window.

If you see a message during uninstall like:
   RUNDLL   Error loading   Ctor.dll
then simply install the CS Linux Windows Client again,
then the uninstall will be able to complete.
To avoid getting that error, reboot the Windows system after
installing or uninstalling the CS Linux Windows Client.



3.  Uninstallation information
------------------------------

Close the CS Linux Win32 Client Monitor program if it is running.
It can be stopped from the taskbar.
Use the Windows "Add or Remove Programs" utility
to remove the CS Linux Win32 Client.
