Bob Rebo wrote up a great explanation on how to set up family search on the network.
You can see his instructions at this link.
There are several files that may take some modifying.
I have created a zip file of the PASNET directory. It is 4.3 Megs.
Click Here to download the file.
This can be used as your directory or as a reference for you.
You will need a Zip program to unzip the directory.
This directory can be copied to each computer, including the server. Add the
following command to the autoexec.bat file on each computer -
subst p: c:\pasnet
(note - there is a space before and after the p:)
I usually have a c:\pas directory for running family search off the cd's and
the c:\pasnet directory mapped to the p: drive so there is a p:\pas directory.
You will need to restart the computer to load the subst command in the autoexec file.
Then go to Windows Explorer and move to the P: drive, open the pas directory and locate
the pas.exe file (about 284K). You can right click on pas.exe and drag it outside the
Windows Explorer screen and drop it. Windows will prompt you to Move, Copy or Create
Shortcut. You want to create a shortcut.
Next right click on the new icon, and rename to Network Family Search
Right click again and select properties.
Click on the screen tab and click on full screen.
Click on the program tab and click near the bottom - to close on exit
Next click on change icon - click on browse - select an icon or move to the p:\pas directory and select the family search icon.
After you select the icon, click ok, then click apply and ok to close the icon property window.
You will still need to map the drive letters as explained in the following web page - Click Here.
