The CID Guide describes the CID (Configuration Installation and Distribution)
method and implementation. It is also a handbook that provides detailed
step-by-step guidance in all phases of the usage and administration of the
main products for the implementation of CID in an OS/2 LAN environment.
It covers remote installations of OS/2 and CID-enabled products using
"IBM OS/2 LAN Server V5.0 RIPL" or "LAN CID Utility" or "Novell NetWare"
or "IBM TCP/IP Version 3.0" or "IBM NetView Distribution Manager/2".
This redbook is intended for workstation specialists and system technical
personnel responsible for mass distribution of CID-enabled software in an
"OS/2 V2.x" or "OS/2 Warp V3" LAN. Some knowledge of LAN redirection
principles is assumed. The five CID redbooks GG24-3977, GG24-3780-02,
GG24-3781-01,GG24-3783-01 and GG24-4295-00
are replaced by this document.
The included CDROM contains some CID-related programs and sample CID
control files for the different installation scenarios. To support older
program levels, it also contains machine readable versions of the
replaced redbooks and their sample diskettes.
