The second step is to prepare the installation files for client installations. The step is similar to the process described in Full installation using customized installation files. This section describes additional elements of that process as they apply to file server installations.
You should copy the QMF for Windows installation files to a shared folder on a file server (the installation folder). Do not use the same folder as the target folder in which you previously installed QMF for Windows on the file server.
With a file server installation, you can use all of the previously described options for customizing the setup.ini file. There are two additional considerations for file server installations.
These two settings cause the installation wizard to simply create shortcuts pointing to the files already installed on the file server, rather than copying new files.
With a file server installation, you can customize the qmfwin4.reg file as previously described. Note that the qmfwin4.reg file in the installation files also gets installed into the target folder, and so it will be present both in the installation folder and the target folder. You must be sure to customize the copy in the installation folder, or else the changes will not be applied when performing client installations.
