Personal Installations

Administrators, or users who do not have Administrator privileges (Windows NT/2000), or "Any User" in Windows 95/98, are able to perform personal installations for HostExplorer. FTP for Windows Explorer, Hummingbird Inetd, and Hummingbird NFS Maestro Client Gateway require Administrator privileges for personal installations in Windows NT/2000. However, "Any User" in Windows 95/98 can install these products or features.

Personal--Without Administrator Privileges

Tip: This type of installation applies to all Windows platforms, but not Windows NT 4.0 Server--Terminal Server Edition or Windows 2000 Advanced Server with Terminal Services enabled.

This scenario assumes:

• you are logged in to the PC as a user, not as Administrator
• you do not have administrative privileges
• you are installing the product for one user (the current user) on one PC
• the product CD is available locally or on the network

  Note: Some product features are not available for installation if you do not have administrative privileges.

To launch a personal installation without Administrator privileges:

1. Launch Setup Wizard in installation mode by one of the following methods:
   • from the command line, run Setup.exe from the product CD or from a server image
   • run Msetup.exe from the product CD

2. If you are prompted, select a language for the installation. English is the default.

   Note: For certain products, English is the only supported language. For more information, see Multi-Language Support. Once selected, the language applies to all subsequent users installing Hummingbird products on the computer.

   
   
   Tip: If Setup.exe is run from a server image, you are not prompted to select an installation language. This is already selected during the copied image or shared image installation.
   
   
3. Dialog boxes provide information and prompt for input.
4. In the Setup Type dialog box, select either Typical, Custom, or Complete.
