Disk space:  
 
You need approximately 25 megabytes (MB) of disk space to install all of the 
AppleShare IP 6.0 software. For the best server performance, you may want to install one 
or more server programs on a separate computer. 
For example, by installing the Web & File software on one server and the print and mail 
software on another, you can “balance the load” on AppleShare IP 6.0 services. This 
practice often improves performance and reliability for high-volume services. 
Alternatively, you may want to install all AppleShare IP software on one server, and other 
server applications—for example, backup software or a gateway or router—on another 
server.
 
Note:  
 
For instructions on moving the Mail Server after it has been installed, see the Mail 
Server section in AppleShare IP Help.

Memory:  
 
You need 48 MB of memory with virtual memory turned on to run all of the 
AppleShare IP servers simultaneously. To run all of the AppleShare IP servers without 
turning on virtual memory, you need a minimum of 64 MB of random-access memory 
(RAM). 
To run each server on a separate computer, you need at least 32 MB of RAM with virtual 
memory turned on.
 
m
 
System software:  
 
Mac OS 8.1 or later. (If your computer is using an earlier version of 
system software, follow the instructions in “Installing Mac OS 8.1” when you reach 
page 13.)
 
If You Are Upgrading
 
If you are upgrading from AppleShare 3 or 4, AppleShare IP 5, or Macintosh file sharing, you 
should be aware of the following information about preserving files and settings.
 
Users & Groups
 
If you are upgrading from AppleShare 3 or 4, AppleShare IP 5, or Macintosh file sharing, the 
registered users and groups that you’ve created are retained when you install 
AppleShare IP 6.0. 
 
Shared Folders and Access Privileges
 
If you have shared folders on another computer that you’d like to move to your 
AppleShare IP 6.0 server, you need to follow the instructions in this manual to install and set 
up AppleShare IP 6.0 on the new server. Then follow the instructions for moving shared 
folders in the Web & File section in AppleShare IP Help.
 
Important  
 
Be sure to check the AppleShare IP 6.0 license agreement (you can print it 
when you install AppleShare IP) for restrictions on installing the AppleShare IP software 
using one serial number
