How do I go about transfering my screen-surfer applications
from my localhost to a network server.
Screensurfer was downloaded on our individual PCs and I
have been using it to create various applications that will
be accessed on the intranet. These applications as per now
can only be accessed on my localhost but not network wide
(on our intranet).

You will need to zip up the folder(s) under the HostServer
directory you have created and extract them onto the new
server in the same path. If you have created any .pml
files you will also need to copy those over as well. Be
sure to place these back in the PML directory. Once you
have done this, be sure to change the compile path in
Development Administration in the DevCenter, then
recompile.
Have you already installed Screensurfer on the network
server?

Thanks for the information.
No, we have not yet installed Screensurfer on the network
server but as soon as we do I will take the files I have
created (the .stml files) including the folder (which I
called caselogs) in which they are stored, from the
HostServer directory and copy it to the same location in
the new directory tree (after downloading screensurfer) on
the network server - all as you stated. I will also change
the compile path to point there.
Now, does that mean that my actual webpages (the .asp
files) that actually display the information I am scraping
from the mainframe using screensurfer will have to be moved
to that server as well?
The application is supposed to be part of the intranet,
does that mean that I should actually download screensurfer
on the intranet server if my .asp files are to be in the
same area as my other intranet files?

The easiest thing would be to migrate everything over so
that all is on one box, however. You can leave the .asp
pages where they are and have a com object installed on
that box. In the com object all you will need to do is
specify the path of where screensurfer is and your folder.

How do I go ahead installing the com object on the intranet
server and in the com object, how do I specify the path
where screensurfer is.

You will need to install the aspsurfer componenet, which
can be found at our ftp site; ftp://www.screensurfer.com
Look for the aspsurfer.exe
During the install you will need to specify the path of the
Screensurfer box. Put in either the ip address or the dns
of the server along with :port number of the terminal port.
So it would look like this 127.0.0.1:82
You can find your terminal port number from the Admin
Console, choose settings.

Thanks for the info when we get our server I will go ahead
and install screensurfer and the aspsurfer componenet on
it. Then transfer my files to it as you first suggested.
Thanks again.
