Delphi 3 was not designed to be installed on a network. Borland makes no claims that a network install of Delphi 3 will work.

It may work for some users if all work machines install Delphi 3 to the same location on the network. This requires many rights, including:

* Writing shared DLLs and OCXs to NT4's System32 directory (usually C:\WinNT\System32)

* Writing registry entries to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

* Writing registry entries to HKEY_CURRENT_USER

* Writing registry entries to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (part of registering OCXs)

Delphi 3 expects all shared DLLs, packages and OCXs to be locally installed.

Delphi 3 expects all registry entries to be local.

Many problems may arise when trying to install Delphi 3 on a network. Possibly the most important one is the network software and hardware itself. Unforeseen problems may occur with any network configuration.
