Run the self-extracting executable file NOSPS.EXE. Be sure to carefully read this NOSPS.TXT file. Go to your LANtastic network directory and copy the currently used REDIR.EXE and SERVER.EXE into temporary files, e.g. copy SERVER.EXE SERVER.OLD and copy REDIR.EXE REDIR.OLD. Then copy REDIR.EXE to the temporary directory that has NOSPS.EXE. Go to the temporary directory that has NOSPS.EXE and run the NEWNOS.BAT batch file and follow the instructions to create licensed copy of REDIR.EXE. If the machine is a server, copy SERVER.EXE and REDIR.EXE to your LANtastic network directory. If the machine is a WORKSTATION only (will never run server), you only need to copy REDIR.EXE to your LANtastic network directory. Once the above steps are performed, the temporary directory can be removed. Repeat this procedure on all machines on the network.
