Winsock RSHD/NT Installation
----------------------------

IMPORTANT: You can install Winsock RSHD/NT as a Windows NT Service or as a
standard application.  A Service is a special NT program that can run
automatically when Windows NT starts.  It runs in the background and operates
even when no users are logged on to the NT system.  To install RSHD/NT as
a service, you *must* be logged on as Administrator or another user who has
permission to create services.

If you are installing Winsock RSHD/NT from a .ZIP file that you downloaded,
use PKUNZIP to decompress the .ZIP file into a directory such as \WRSHDINST
or to a diskette.  This directory must be DIFFERENT than the directory in
which Winsock RSHD/NT is to ultimately be installed (the default installation
directory is C:\WRSHDNT). Then, use Start/Run (or File/Run if using Windows
NT 3.51) and  type the name of the directory containing the decompressed
files followed by "SETUP".  For example, if you decompressed the files in
\WRSHDINST, type "\WRSHDINST\SETUP".  Then press the Enter key.  (This can
also be done from a Command Prompt if you prefer).

If you are installing Winsock RSHD/NT from a diskette, insert the Winsock
RSHD/NT diskette into your diskette drive.  Then choose Start/Run (or File/Run
if using Windows NT 3.51).  Then type the name of your diskette drive followed
by "SETUP".  For example, if the diskette is in the A: drive,
type "A:SETUP".  Then press the Enter key.  (This can also be done from a
Command Prompt if you prefer).

The Winsock RSHD/NT Installation window will then appear.  Verify that the
drive letter shown in the Source field is correct.  If it is not, specify the
proper drive.

Specify the directory in which you would like Winsock RSHD/NT to be installed
in the Destination field.  This will default to the C:\WRSHDNT directory on the
drive where Windows NT is installed.  You may change it if you wish.

IMPORTANT: If you are installing Winsock RSHD/NT as a service, the Destination
directory *must* be on a local hard drive (for example, C:).  The Windows NT
Service Manager does not have access to network drives.

If you do not want Winsock RSHD/NT to be installed as a Windows NT Service,
uncheck the Install as Service option and it will not be added to the list of
Windows NT Services.  Winsock RSHD/NT can be run as an application instead of a
service if you wish (explained in the manual).

Press the Install button to begin the installation.  Press Cancel if you wish
to exit.

Files will be copied to the Destination directory.  When all files have been
copied, the installation will ask you whether or not you want Windows NT to
start the Winsock RSHD/NT service each time Windows NT starts (if you have
installed it as a service)..  Click Yes to start it automatically each time
Windows NT starts or No if you want to start it manually.

The Winsock RSHD/NT service will then be installed in Windows NT's list of
services and it will be started if this option was selected.

See the section on Winsock RSHD/NT Utilities for instructions on how to
manually start and stop the Winsock RSHD/NT service.


REMOVING WINSOCK RSHD/NT

To remove Winsock RSHD/NT, you must first stop the Winsock RSHD/NT service,
then remove the service from Windows NT's list of services.  This can be done
by using the Service Control button in the RSHD Control Panel applet or by
running the "wrshdctl" program in the Winsock RSHD/NT directory.

From the Winsock RSHD/NT Control menu, first select "Stop the Winsock RSHD/NT
Service".  Then select "Remove the Winsock RSHD/NT Service".

You can then delete the Winsock RSHD/NT directory.  You should also delete the
file WRSHDNT.CPL in the Windows System directory (\WINNT\SYSTEM32 for example).
This is the Control Panel applet for Winsock RSHD/NT.
