I help to manage a NetWare net where we have 'roving' Windows 3.1 users. Anyone can login from any PC and get their desktop; this is achieved by keeping the users' INIs and GRPs on their net drive. EXEs, DLLs, etc are stored on the local hard drives. One problem with this setup is that "setup /p", when run from the program manager, returns an error saying that the user is "attempting to run setup from windows and that he should run setup from outside of windows". "Setup /p" is a very handy trick for rebuilding damaged program groups based on the user's SETUP.INF file. Under Win30, "setup /p" worked wonderfully for roving users. I'd appreciate any advice on getting "setup /p" to work properly under Win31 in a roving situation. --- รพ WinQwk 2.0 #524 รพ A cool face is the sign of a frozen heart. #! rnews 5
