Problem

Solutions: 1.      Overview
      A.      The purpose of this module is to better familiarize the operator with ICLAS so that better support can be given to the caller.

2.      Network Installation
      A.      Ensure that you have both the three-ring binder and the spiral- bound installation manual.
      B.      Read the manual!
      C.      Insert the commands listed on page 5-15 of the installation manual into the AUTOEXEC.NCF file. This will prevent the server from sending the error "1.1.7 Station x Attempted To Use An Unencrypted Password Call" and locking the workstation. The specific command in the AUTOEXEC.NCF file is: "SET ALLOW UNENCRYPTED PASSWORDS=ON."
      D.      Create the boot disk as described beginning on page 5-24.
      E.      Reboot the workstation with the boot disk.
      F.      IMPORTANT: At the F:\LOGIN prompt, type A:G, and press Enter. If you go to the A:\ prompt, type G, and press Enter, drive A: will be remapped to the network, and the computer will not be able read the install disks.
      G.      Restart the server after installing the disks.

3.      Security (The idea is to keep the network as secure as possible.)
      A.      The A: drive is remapped to the user's directory. For example, A:\TEACHERS\CLAYM___.__. Note the underscores. It forces an eight-character directory name with a two-character extension.
      B.      SYSCON has been moved to SYS:ADMIN\SYSOP___.__
      C.      Only the SYSOP can use SYSCON from the menu.
      D.      The user's directory is H:\\ (e.g. H:\STUDENTS\BONNIEBA.__, H:\TEACHERS\CLAYM___.__, or H:\ADMIN\SYSOP___.__).

4.      Editing the command line that erases .CHK and .SET files
      A.      Login as SYSOP.
      B.      Under Program Options choose Modify Program Install Options, and press Enter.
      C.      With Programs highlighted press Enter.
      D.      Highlight WP51, and press F10.
      E.      Cursor to Program Start Instructions (second item on the menu).
      F.      Delete any "erase *.CHK^" and any "erase *.SET^" commands on that line.
      G.      Press F10 to save changes and then Escape to the main SYSOP menu.

5.      User's screens
      A. SYSOP - Red
      B. ADMIN - Red
      C. OFFICEADMN - Black
      D. TEACHER - Black
      E. STUDENT - Blue

6.      Changes to guideline

7.      Comments on IBM's installation of WP
      A.      Item 10 encourages deleting the .CHK files and the .SET files.
      B.      Item 24 discourages the installation of the .ENV file.

8.      Installing Tutor
      A.      Must have two search drives to COURSES\WP51 (first will be remapped to LEARN).

9.      Additional Comments
      A.      SYSOP has a drive mapped to P:\COURSES that is not available to other users. This is why you must create the WP51 directory and then map a drive to that directory prior to installing WP.
