Launching the AnswerBook2 Viewer

If you are running the Solaris 2.6 operating system and you select the AnswerBook2 icon provided on the CDE front panel, select AnswerBook2 from the OpenWindows Programs menu, or enter the answerbook2 command, the system launches a web browser with the URL for the document server. It finds the web browser to launch by searching your path and launching HotJava or the first web browser it finds in your path. For information on how the system determines the URL for the document server, see "Finding a Document Server".

If you are not running the Solaris 2.6 operating system, you can also access the AnswerBook2 product from any HTML 3.2-compliant web browser. Start up your web browser and point it to the appropriate document server URL. For example, if your system administrator installed an AnswerBook2 document server on the system imayoyo, you would access the URL http://imayoyo:8888.
