WebZinger Help for Solaris

Solaris Install Procedures:
- Download .zip file.
- Unzip with unzip -U wz400-2.zip
- This will create a directory below the .zip file called webzinger.

- To use as an application:
        - If you are NOT ON A PROXY SERVER
                - Edit the script wzunix in the webzinger directory.
                - Replace the JDK with your JDK_HOME path. This is
                        the path where your java jdk or jre is located.
                - From the webzinger directory run ./wzunix
        - If you ARE ON A PROXY SERVER
                - Edit the file webzingerunix (which is a script file).
                - Replace the JDK with your JDK_HOME path. This is
                        the path where your java jdk or jre is located.
                - Replace the PROXY SERVERS listed with your proxy server
                        information. This can be collected from your
                        browser preferences pages or from your system
                        administrators.
                - From the webzinger directory run ./webzingerunix

To use as an applet:
        - Open Netscape 4.04 with the JDK 1.1 patch and go to the webzinger
                directory and the file webzingern.html. When Netscape asks
                you for permission to run WebZinger, grant it. If you do
                not want to keep having to grant permission, push the
                remember this buttons instead.
        - It is not recommended that you use Netscape to run WebZinger on
                Solaris with less than an Ultra workstation with 128 M of
                memory. For slower machines, use the application version.
 

System Requirements:
- Sparc 20 or Ultra Workstation or higher
- 64 MBytes memory
-JRE (Java Runtime 1.1.5) or JDK1.1.3 or higher, JDK1.1.5 preferred.
Get this from http://java.sun.com
- Any browser for the Java Application version, Netscape 4.04 With the
Java 1.1 patch for the Java Applet version.

Known  Issues

Application Known Issues in Version 4.00 for Solaris
 * On some systems the Introduction demo page (which shows you how to do a
recording comes up as a full screen size. It still works, simply push the desired
button and move on.
* In most corporate network environments the browser is placed in a central
location. To find the path that you need for your browser when WebZinger asks you for it, type
"which Netscape" at a command line and use that path for the version.
* Netscape and Hot Java on Solaris will take a bit longer to find web pages
because they do not remember  that the browser is open.

Applet Known Issues in Version 4.00 for Solaris
* It is strongly recommended that the Netscape 4.04 with JDK 1.1 patch be used.
* It is also strongly recommended that the applet version be used only on Ultra Workstations or higher
with 128M of RAM.
