ZEN WORKS
Zero Effort Networks (Z.E.N. works) is a great new tool in NetWare 5, that makes the network administrator's job a lot easier by allowing him to spend less time at each user workstation. To be able to use the Z.E.N. works these are the minimum hardware requirements:Ø Memory: 16 MB (for Windows 95); 24 MB (for Windows NT)Ø Hard disk space: 4 MB (workstation; 24 MB (full station)Z.E.N. works needs to be installed on the server and the client on the workstation needs to be updated.During the installation process Dynamic Link Libraries (DLLs) are copied to the workstation. DLLs contain subprograms that are called by an application to perform cert
The wrapper program determines which launcher program (NALW31. The snapshot includes Registry settings along with the names of system and application files on the workstation. The Application Launcher software consists of two components: the wrapper program and the launcher. EXE) to run based on the client computer's operating system. Another utility that is included in Z. works to help the distribution and management of applications is the Application Launcher, which consists of four major components:Ø Snap-in DLLØ SnapshotØ Application objects in the NDS treeØ Application Launcher Window and Application objectThe snAppShot utility allows you take a "snapshot" of the Windows workstation before installing the application. When the user selects an application, the launcher determines whether the application is installed on the workstation. After the application has been installed, the snAppShot utility takes another picture of the workstation's configuration and then uses the two snapshots to create an Application Object Template (AOT) file. If Application Launcher senses that the application configuration has been damaged, or files are missing or corrupt, it will automatically correct the application configuration and copy and damaged or missing files.
