finding and organizing networked CD/DVDs. It runs in the
Windows 95/98/2000 and Windows NT 4 environments.
AXIS StorPoint DISCO will gather all the discs that reside on your Axis
Network Storage Servers in a single folder under My Computer in Windows
Explorer. As the program hides the network topography, the discs will always be
easy to find and access. You will no longer need to browse through the entire
Network Neighborhood in order to locate the discs you are looking for. You use
standard Explorer functions to manipulate the discs.
AXIS StorPoint DISCO version 2.00 is available in two types of installations:
• Standalone
• Client/Server
The standalone version gives all the users full functionality and allows all users to
view all the discs on the network. For small workplaces or single users, this is the
recommended setup.
The client/server version is divided into one server part and one client part. First
the administrator will install the server version locally. The administrator then
organizes discs and launch objects (see "Launch Objects " on page 46) into a
number of public folders. When the client part has been installed on the client
users' computers, the user can select which public folders to use according to
their needs. For larger workplaces with a central system administration and
many shared discs, this is the recommended setup. See "Client Installation " on
page 49.
