Remove the QuickConference/InOutTracker CD from your computer and click Finish. When installation is complete, you can launch the Prairie Server application from the Program menu under "Prairie Server". ---------- Backing Up Data and Preferences The Prairie Server data files are now all stored in a folder called "PServer", which is stored in a folder called "Prairie Group". This folder is stored in the folder "C:\Windows\Application Data" under Windows 98, but may be stored elsewhere under other operating systems. Search for "PServer" to find it on your computer. ----------- InOutTracker Notes If you are running InOutTracker, the server can keep a log of all activity. You should save or print the log and clear it regularly. It is possible for the log to get too large to view. You can view the log either from the server or from any user's system that has been given permission to view the log. Some users can be notified automatically of all activity. Since this will interrupt the user regularly, it should only be used by someone whose primary responsibility is keeping track of people. ========================================= Copyright ©1998, 2000, 2001 CE Software, Inc.
