6 - Can't Wait?




G Can't wait to try it out? (You should definitely have first read the `section 4 - Requirements.) This will give you a minimal, non-Ocustom, hypertext environment, with the server running from the command line. NYou will need a privileged account and the general requirements of the server `package (see 4 - Requirements). This assumes the server has &been built for the local environment. 

A Device: is the disk device on which the package has been :placed. Architecture is either ``AXP'' or ``VAX'' Jdepending on your platform. Port is the IP port for the server to Kuse (defaults to 80, but can be bound elsewhere allowing the evaluation of <this environment against an existing one on the same host). 

" Enter the following DCL commands:E

  $ DEFINE /JOB /TRANSLATION=CONCEALED HT_ROOT device:[HT_ROOT.]-  $ DEFINE /JOB HT_EXE HT_ROOT:[architecture]E  $ DEFINE /JOB HTTPD$CONFIG HT_ROOT:[HTTPD.EXAMPLE]HTTPD$CONFIG.CONF?  $ DEFINE /JOB HTTPD$MAP HT_ROOT:[HTTPD.EXAMPLE]HTTPD$MAP.CONF  $ HTTPD == "$HT_EXE:HTTPD"  $ HTTPD /NOLOG /PORT=port


0 Then bring up your browser and access this URL:!

  http://host[:port]/


Alternatively ...



Execute%/@device:[HT_ROOT]FREEWARE_DEMO.COM 8(which will do all of the above, and a bit more, for you:^) )
