Installing the WBEM SDK

WBEM SDK installs the components needed to write WBEM-compliant management applications and providers that run on the Java platform on Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT 4.0. This software cannot be used to write providers for Microsoft's Win32 operating system. These components consist of the following: CIM Workshop, Client API, Provider API, Sample Client Programs , Sample Provider Programs, user documentation, the WBEM on Sun Developer's Guide, Javadoc for Client and Provider API .

If you install WBEM under a default SEAS installation using the installation wizard, WBEM will display a screen requesting the Sun Directory Services (SDS) administrator's account password. Typing the password at this screen is optional. Click Next to bypass the password screen. If the SDS administrative account password is not set during the installation of WBEM as part of a SEAS installation, you must run the wbemconfig script to start SDS and configure your WBEM environment.

If you install WBEM under a default SEAS installation using the install --nodisplay command in a terminal window, the password screen is not shown.
