SUMMARY
=======

The Windows operating environment supports a network installation option where
Windows is placed on a server. Even though each workstation runs the
installation program to create a personal configuration file, the majority of
the files exist only on the server and are accessed over the network.

The Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) is not designed to support this method
of installation. Each workstation must have a complete copy of the SDK
installed. The SDK should be installed from the disks that are included in the
retail package.

Additional query words: 3.00 3.10
