That's essentially what 84.5 is saying. So, deselecting everything
seems to bring in 

    	DECTAL.DLL and its related files
    	ASLAPI.DLL and its related files

which is the only thing PowerTerm uses from PATHWORKS 32. Telnet
is already there as part of the platform. Not sure where Winsock
comes into play...

FWIW, I'm running PowerTerm/Telnet on NT 3.51 Alpha after running the 
setup of Powerterm and copying DECTAL.DLL, ASL*.DLL, PWTELNT.DLL to 
the PowerTerm directory. Seems to work just fine, including Single 
Logon. The only thing this leaves out is the event logging stuff but 
it doesn't bother me.

If you want the languages, you'd also need the PWASSTxx.HLP and .CNT
files for the Password Assistant help. That should be it.

In this version, PowerTerm is not using the Event Logger directly
at all, but I guess you are referring to DECTAL.DLL and PWTELNT.DLL,
which do.

95.6just choose licensingVMSNET::M_SMITHFri Jan 24 1997 09:038
    re .1
    
    We have installed powerterm under nt and win95.  Then we run pw32
    setup and select just licensing.  This seems to get us everything we
    need for powerterm over telnet.

    also selecting just VT320 (which actually makes more sense from a
    what-to-tell-the-customer standpoint :-) works to, at least with
    today's pw32daily bits.

95.9on both win95 and wnt?VMSNET::DMCFARLANDMon Jan 27 1997 14:467
    steven,
    
    does this work with BOTH win95 and wnt?  it seems i read something
    somewhere that it worked on one, but not the other...?

    I don't know, diane, give it a try :-)
    sorry, but all my testing's been on Goofy thus far.
    
95.11How integrated is eXcursion installation?JOBIM::VUJNOVICI�t�r��t���l�z�t��L���l�z�t��Tue Jan 28 1997 13:2810
Out of curiosity, what if you just want to install eXcursion (I've
not done it with recent versions...)

I realize it does not need DECTAL and talks directly to telnet
and DECnet, but I'm not sure if it needs anything else.

(Just trying to find out if PowerTerm is the least integrated one,
but I guess I already know the answer...)

95.12my $.02VMSNET::S_VORESmile - Mickey&#039;s Watching!Tue Jan 28 1997 13:475
based on the facts that
 - eXcursion has all along been designed as a stand-alone product
 - eXcursion does not take advantage of the Password Assistant
...I would suspect that it still does not require any other PW bits,
but have not done any testing to prove this.
95.13LAT or TELNET no DECnet; or CTERM&DECnet PowerTerm WorksJAMIN::TELESETSKYFri Jan 31 1997 11:2923
    
    
    
    
    Using a WinNT v4.x client, I've found that the following configurations
    chosen from the PW32 client work with PowerTerm :
    
     Run PW32 setup and select nothing, PowerTerm works over TELNET
 
     Run PW32 and select only LAT and maybe Licensing, PowerTerm works over LAT
    
     You -don't- have to install DECnet to use PowerTerm over LAT or
    TELNET.
    
    In order to run PowerTerm over CTERM, you have to have DECnet AND
    Winsock2.  In Win NT v4.0, winsock2 is already incorporated in WinNT
    v4.0 and this configuration will work. However, in Win95 the winsock2
    is not released yet and neither PowerTerm -nor- Vt320 will work over
    CTERM and DECnet on it.
