System Requirement:
IIS 5.0 and above
PHP, ASP or ASP.Net

If you are running the NetVIOS Editbox that comes by default with NetVIOS 2.2 or NetVIOS Portal 2.1, then you do not need a separate installation. Installing NetVIOS will give you access to the programs that generate the feature-rich editbox. However, if you are running the standalone version, follow the installation instructions below:

1. Unzip the installation file.
   The file will compose of a dll NetVIOSEditbox.dll and files in a subfolder called NetBox
   The NetBox subfolder will contain the files (palette.asp, inserttable.asp, and license.asp and a folder called images)

 

INSTALLING WORKING FILES

2. Copy (or ftp) the folder NetBox and its subfolder as-is to your web directory.
3. Get your service provider to install the component NetVIOSEditBox.dll on your server (Most ASP or Windows hosting outfits will do this for youst no cost. If you run into problems here, contact NetVIOS and we will arrange with your host to install this component).

1. Simply copy the NetVIOSEditBox.dll into your \WinNT\system32 folder

Or

2. Copy the file into a folder created by you for commercial components.
3. Make sure the Insternet user (IUSR_ComputerName) has access to the dll.
4. Declare the dll with the command
   regsvr dllpath
   (where dllpath is like C:\Components\NetVIOSEditBox.dll)

1. Enter the command
   regsvr dllpath /unregserver

For some Windows 2000 servers, you may need to go into component services to declare the component. (Let us know if you have this problem) This is the procedure:

1. Open up the Component Services (Start → Programs → Administrative Tools → Component Services).
2. Expand the Computer and My Computer folder until you see the COM+ folder.
3. Right Click on COM+ Applications and Select New (Open in a new window if this option is unavailable).
4. Select Application from the New menu

• The New Application Wizard is launched

1. Click Next
2. Select Create An Empty Application
3. Give the application a name such as "NetVIOSEditBox" and select the Library Application option
4. Allow the Interactive User to access the application by selecting the Next button
5. Click Finish to complete the new application creation
6. Now expand the COM+ Application List
7. Expand the application you just created
8. Select the Component folder under this application
9. Right click on the Components folder (when it is selected) and click on the New option (click Open in a New Window if this option is unavailable)
10. Select the Component Option
11. A New Component Wizard is presented
12. Select the "Install New Component" option and locate the dll.
13. Follow the steps to complete the process.
14. When completed, right click on the exact component you have created.
15. Under the Security tab, make sure to turn off the option to enforce component level security checks
16. Recheck to ensure that on the Application level (COM+Application), the Activation Type of the entire application is "Library". (If when you right click the Application "NetVIOSEditBox" after selecting its folder package and there is an option to Start or Stop the application, then the Activation type is not set to "Library").

This is necessary only for the Standalone installation. If you are using the editbox as part of NetVIOS, the program comes free and is automatically activated.
