Appendix G
NT Server

This section describes how to install, run and administer the NT Server. You should already have read "Installation and General Administration" on page 19 before proceeding. For those already familiar with Razor in the UNIX environment, Razor server on Windows NT (RazorNT Server) will look quite familiar.

TIP: While old-time Razor UNIX users will be familiar with the command line administration scripts, Windows users will more than likely enjoy the GUI Razor Admin tool. Many of the Razor administrative functions can be performed with the Razor Admin tool, which is located in the Razor program group. Once Razor is installed, skip right to "Razor administration via Razor Admin" on page 314 for details on using the Razor Admin tool.

RazorNT Server supports all of the Razor remote clients which are PC clients, UNIX remote clients, and IssueWeaver¹.

LIMITATIONS: RazorNT Server does not yet support e-mail. This means that e-mail notification, database synchronization, e-mail issue submittal and e-mail query are not supported.

For the curious, the RazorNT Server license manager and database servers are installed as NT Services. Starting and stopping these applications is as simple as starting or stopping the service via the NT Services panel or can be administered using the GUI Razor Admin tool.

¹ For specific details on installing IssueWeaver under NT, refer to the Installation section in the IssueWeaver Users Manual.
