How This Manual is OrganizedThis manual contains the following chapters and appendix:
Document ConventionsMonospaced Font
Monospaced font is used for any text that appears on the computer screen or text that you should type. It is also used for filenames, distinguished names, functions, and examples.
Bold Monospaced Font
Bold monospaced font is used to represent text within a code example that you should type. For example, you might see something like this:
./installer
In this example, ./installer is what you would type at the command line.
Italicized Font
Italicized font is used to represent text that you enter using information that is unique to your installation (for example, variables). It is used for server paths and names.
For example, throughout this document you will see path references of the form:
msg_svr_base/...
The Messaging Server Base (msg_svr_base) represents the directory path in which you install the server. The default value of the msg_svr_base is /opt/SUNWmsgsr.
The Calendar Server Base (cal_svr_base) represents the directory path in which you install the server. The default value of the cal_svr_base is /opt/SUNWics5.
Square or Straight Brackets
Square (or straight) brackets [] are used to enclose optional parameters.
Command Line Prompts
Command line prompts (for example, % for a C-Shell, or $ for a Korn or Bourne shell) are not displayed in the examples. Depending on which operating system you are using, you will see a variety of different command line prompts. However, you should enter the command as it appears in the document unless specifically noted otherwise.
Platform-specific Syntax
All paths specified in this manual are in UNIX format. If you are using a Windows 2000-based Messaging and Collaboration, you should assume the Windows 2000 equivalent file paths whenever UNIX file paths are shown in this book.
