The docs and readmes bearly give any >instructions at all. The http_startup.com procedure on the freeware CD is broken in a couple ways. One of the defects is that while it installs the WWW_SYSTEM:TSERVER_xxxSHR.EXE shareable images, it doesn't actually define TSERVER_TCPSHR to point one of them (TGV, TWG, UCX). If you run UCX fix the problem by adding the following to the top of HTTP_STARTUP.COM: $ define/system/exec tserver_tcpshr www_system:tserver_ucxshr.exe The demo procedure on the CD, freeware_demo.com, works by asking which TCP/IP package you are running and assigning the logical TSERVER_TCPSHR to the apprpropriate shareable image. The freeware_demo.com procedure runs on a non-privielged port so doesn't require any of the images to be installed. The use of multi-vendor support via TSERVER_TCPSHR is rarely used - most users are only running one TCP package and build the server from the sources with the appropriate QIO calls compiled in directly. The latest version is always at http://kcgl1.eng.ohio-state.edu/www/doc/serverinfo.html. The other error in the special http_startup.com on the freeware_CD is that the first "then goto mst_done" should really be "then goto tserver_done". If you don't make this fix, the server will start but won't be able to load some of the features (i.e. full directory browse and image maps). David L.
