Windows 2003 server will not allow you to share the root folder of the server. Here is how you take care of that problem. On the C drive (or other drive if you prefer) create a folder GARAGE and give full permissions. Go to Network Places. Find this new share and Map Network Drive to give this folder a drive letter on the server. Run the GarageKeeper CD and install both programs and data to this drive letter. From the workstations, map a drive letter to the GARAGE share on the server. Run the install CD and tell it to put programs on C and data on the mapped drive letter. The GarageKeeper install will ask you whether you are running Windows 95/98/NT. The message should read are you running Windows 95/98/NT or later, so answer yes to this question. See other items in this FAQ for editing the CONFIG.NT file, mapping LPT printers with the NET USE command, and editing the registry to speed up the first page of printouts, if they are too slow.
