Frank, the following automated solution for running Computer Select on t
network may interest you. This is very desirable for network
administrators who use shared menuing systems.
IPX or IPXODI loaded earlier.
COMPSEL.BAT –
NETUSR /N:1 /U:Frank_Zirpolo // Device driver
MSCDEX /D:$OPTINET /E // Extensions
ONET -A <Server Name> -O COMPSEL // Access Server, Database
SETCD // Create
Environment Var
%CD%:CS // e.g. CD=E
ONET -R // Remove all from
memory
This example loads the device driver and extensions, determines the CD-ROM
drive letter, runs Computer Select from that drive letter, then removes
both NETUSR.COM and MSCDEX.EXE from memory. The user's system is left
unaltered, and other programs may be run without a reboot required to
reclaim system resources. NETUSR and MSCDEX may be loaded high with DOS
5.0 "Loadhigh" and still removed. System RAM cost, worst case: 30KB. Best
case: 0 (using UMBs and possible EMS).
This is 100% automated, non-intrusive, compatible with all interfaces, and
doesn't require any software to be installed on the user station if the
software is loaded from the file server (although this implies a loaded
network shell).
