3 Appendices
3.1 Appendix A. Server Installation
If the computer where Lantek programs are installed, is connected to a network, the database folder (
usually C:\Lantek\Database ) will be shared in the network with the following name: DATABASE$.
This can be checked just typing in \\ServerName\DATABASE$ in the run command of your O.S, where
ServerName is the name of the computer where the standalone installation has been performed. If the
command is sucessful, an explorer window will appear showing the contents of the database files folder.
In that folder a file called Database.ini can be found. Following the contents of the file:
[Database]
DATABASE= C:\LANTEK\DATABASE ; Database Files directory
DATABASE2= \\ServerName\DATABASE$ ; Shared Server Directory
These parameters are only necessary for the installer when performing a client installation.
All database connection parameters are stored in a file called lfocus.cfg in Expert main folder.
Following, the description of the most important connection parameters:
[Work database] ; Specifies the current working database
LSystem
[Server Name] ; Specifies the server where MSDE or Sql Server is installed.
ServerName
[Database files directory] ; Specifies the local folder where the database is created.
C:\LANTEK\DATABASE
[Shared server directory] ; Specifies the network shared folder where the database has been created.
DATABASE$
If the computer is not connected to a network, the [Shared Server directory] parameter will be blank or
the same as the [Database files Directory] parameter. Both parameters are used only when creating a
new database.
Example:
We have two computers which are connected to network, one will be the server ( COMPUTER1 ) and
the other the client ( COMPUTER2 ).
COMPUTER1: We make a server installation of Expert in C:\LANTEK\EXPERT and create a Database

called Test. As this computer is connected to a network, it will become the server computer.
COMPUTER2: We make a client installation in C:\LANTEK\EXPERT and select that the server computer
will be COMPUTER1. ( see step h of client installation ).
Following the connection parameters in lfocus.cfg for both computers:
..
[Work database]
Test
[Server Name]
COMPUTER1
[Database files directory]
C:\LANTEK\DATABASE
[Shared server directory]
DATABASE$
