Installation - Windows manual

1. System Requirements for Office 4 (Windows)

Before you install, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Required Environments for Cybozu Office 4

    A server OS that is equipped with a TCP/IP networking and a static IP address. See details below.

    Web Server - IIS, Peer Web Services, or PWS. Each user will access the server from client PCs on your network.

    • Client PCs, equipped with Web browsers. Client PCs only need browsers (Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator etc.). Therefore, you can use Cybozu Office 4 in an environment where different OS like Win, Mac, UNIX, etc. co-exist.
  2. Server OS

    Operative only on IBM PC-AT machines with an Intel or an Intel-compatible CPU.

    • Windows 2000 Professional
    • Windows 2000 Server
    • Windows NT Workstation 4.0
    • Windows NT Server 4.0
    • Windows 98
  3. Web Server

    You need to install a Web server on the server machine to use Cybozu Office 4.

  4. Client PCs: web browser environments

    Cybozu Office 4 should only be installed on a server machine; you do not need to and should not install anything on client PCs, expect for a browser.

    Cybozu Office 4 can be accessed properly with the following browsers.

    • Internet Explorer 4.0 or later
    • Netscape Navigator 3.x
    • Netscape Navigator 4.x

    Notes:

    With Netscape Navigator 6.0, graphic files on Cybozu Office may not display properly. We recommend Netscape Navigator 3.X/4.X.

    Use Netscape Navigator for Macintosh.

    CPU CPU:
    Windows: Intel Pentium 90 MHz or faster*
    Linux: Intel Pentium 90 MHz or faster*

    *Windows and Linux versions are operative only on IBM PC-AT machines with an Intel or an Intel-compatible CPU and is not on Cobalt Qube products with MIPS CPU. (Cobalt Qube 3 is fully supported.) Before using it, please confirm your operation environment
    Memory Recommended: 64 M byte or more
    Minimum: 32 M byte

    [A guideline for comfortable operations]
    50 users version: 64 Mbytes or more
    100 users version: 128 Mbytes or more

    * 'Cause Windows 98 is not designed to serve as a server,there may be a case that you cannot operate it properly.
    In case of an operation with a small number of users and a small number of transactions,where you will shut down Win 98 everyday, it may be operative, but we cannot guarantee its stable operation.
    We highly recommend to use with Win NT4.0/2000 or LINUX
    Hard Disk capacity Recommended: 50 M byte or more
    Minimum: 10 M byte

    In case of using the File Attachment feature for Bulletin Board 4, WebMail 4, Forum 4, Cabinet 4,Circulation 4 & Web Forms 4, it will heavily depend on the size of attachment files.

    * In case of using WebMail 4, you will need additional 1 M x number of users.
    Others Use IBM PC-AT machines.
    In case of an operation with over 100 users, prepare a dedicated server machine with SCSI disk.
