Windows 9x/NT Installation instructions for halfd GUI Clients.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS TOOL ONLY WORKS ON WINDOWS CLIENTS!
IT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MANAGE YOUR WINDOWS SERVER!  READ THE FAQ!

PLEASE FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXPLICITLY, OR THINGS PROBABLY 
WON'T WORK!

1. Unzip this archive into a temporary directory.

2. Run the "win76p2.exe" file.  

	This will install basic Tcl/Tk on your Windows system.

	*** EXTREMELY IMPORTANT ***
	When it asks you for a directory to install under, DO NOT
	specify a directory with any spaces in it!

	e.g. if you install this thing anywhere under "Program Files" 
	it WILL NOT WORK!

	I used "C:\Tcl", and I advise you do the same.

3. Unzip the "tclXwin7.6.0.zip" file into the same directory you 
   installed Tcl into.

	e.g. "C:\Tcl".

	Make sure you use the "Use Folder Names" option when unzipping
	this, or things won't work.

4. Copy the "hlgui" and "halfd_client.cfg" files into your "C:\Tcl"
   directory.

5. Copy the "hlclustermon" and "halfd_cluster.cfg" files into your "C:\Tcl"
   directory.

6. Copy the "Shortcut to hlgui" file onto your desktop or start menu,
   or wherever you feel comfortable running this from.

	If you installed in a directory other than "C:\Tcl", you will
	need to change the Properties of the shortcut to point to
	the proper location.

7. If you want to monitor/admin multiple servers, you can pass arguments
   to the GUI when it starts.  

	See the properties of the "Shortcut example" file for an example
	of the arguments.  They are the port and address of the server 
	you want to connect to.

8. Enjoy.  Read the "Help" menu on the GUI for information on the options
   you have available to you.

9. READ THE FAQ IF YOU ARE STILL HAVING PROBLEMS.  Thanks.
