Internet InstallsTSetup 3.00 will support Internet-based installs. The Internet-based install will work regardless of which browser you are using. For an Internet install, TSetup will build a small EXE that can be downloaded via a web browser. The small EXE will contain an copy of the setup program that you design, but it will not contain any of the distribution files. The small EXE will start the setup program on the user's system. The setup program will allow the user to setup the install - but instead of copying the files from an archive, hard drive, floppy drive, or CD, the files will be downloaded from the Internet using the HTTP protocol. Only the files that are needed for the install will be downloaded; any unneeded files will not be downloaded. For an Internet install to work - the computer that is performing the install must be connected to the Internet. Installs are not yet supported on isolated Intranets or smaller TCP/IP networks. This is not due to a design flaw or inability - this is done to ensure version compatibility during the TSetup 3.00 beta program. If you're very interested in testing an isolated network version, please contact me. |
