Welcome to Key Negotiator by Dan Burnstein
Version 1.0

Windows Environment Requirements
---------------------------------------
For Key Negotiator to work effectively, it should be run in "Enhanced Mode" 
with at least 4MB of free Windows memory.  To find out what mode Windows is
running in, choose the About command on the Help menu in Program Manager.  
The About command will also display the amount of free memory that is available
to Windows.  

Key Negotiator Setup will modify your CONFIG.SYS file if you have less than
50 file handles available, and it will alert you that it has made this change.  
After backing up your original CONFIG.SYS as CONFIG.KEY, SETUP will add the 
following line to your CONFIG.SYS:
	
	FILES=50

You must reboot your computer for this change to take effect.  If you choose not
to reboot, Key Negotiator may not function correctly.  

File Sharing
------------
*** The following section is technical in nature and may be safely skipped
*** if you plan on running Windows exclusively in Enhanced Mode.

Key Negotiator requires that "file sharing" capabilities be available
by using either SHARE.EXE (loaded before Windows starts) or by using
VSHARE.386, which Key Negotiator Setup will automatically install by 
copying VSHARE.386 into the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory and by adding this 
line to the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file: 
  
    device=vshare.386 

Key Negotiator Setup will backup your original SYSTEM.INI as SYSTEM.KEY.
Setup will notify you if you must restart Windows before VSHARE.386 will 
take effect.  If you choose not to restart Windows, Key Negotiator may not 
function correctly.

If you absolutely cannot run Windows in Enhanced Mode, then SHARE.EXE must
be in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Add the following line to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to 
install SHARE.EXE: 
  
    <path>\SHARE.EXE /L:500 /F:5100 
  
For example, if the most recent version  of SHARE.EXE file is 
located in the DOS directory on drive C, add the following line 
to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file: 
  
    C:\DOS\SHARE.EXE /L:500 /F:5100 
  
After adding SHARE.EXE to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, restart the computer.
