Pieces and Parts

The AnswerBook2 product is relatively simple. It consists of the following elements:

• A web browser--The Solaris 2.6 product release includes the HotJava(TM) browser; however, you can use any HTML 3.2-compliant browser to view Sun's online documentation.

  ---

  Note -

  If you just want to view online documentation, you only need this element. All other elements are part of the document server system.

• The AnswerBook2 application and utilities--Includes GUIs for document viewing and printing as well as administrative functions (you can also perform administrative functions from a command-line interface).

• A document and administration server--Performs query functions and "serves" documents to the application; also, performs database, password authentication, and other administrative functions.

• Documents--Can be new (SGML) documents or old (Display PostScript) documents.
