AIX 5L Problem Determination - IBM Redbooks

You can invoke the Documentation Library Service without installing the
docsearch client component. In fact, you do not even need to invoke the
Documentation Library Service from an AIX machine. You can do this by first
invoking the browser and entering the following URL:
http://server_name[:port_number]/cgi-bin/ds_form
This URL points to a global search form on the document server where the name
of the remote server is given in server_name. The port_number only needs to be
entered if the port is not 80.
If you have not run Netscape previously, a series of informational messages and
windows will be shown while Netscape is setting up the environment in your
home directory. This is standard behavior for the first execution of Netscape. The
messages will not be shown the next time you start Netscape.
The top part of the Documentation Library Service page allows you to specify
your search criteria, and the bottom part shows what online manuals have been
installed. Figure 12-4 on page 328 shows the Documentation Library Service
page with only the command reference manuals and the programming guide
manuals installed.
