How to set up Telephone Extension List (Ext32)

You need to create a directory that contains the Telephone Extension List (Ext32) program, the help files and a small text file called PABX.INI. This directory should be on your file server in an area where the system administrator can update the files and the users have read only access. The directory where you keep your applications with a sub directory called "MONTEL" would be ideal. For example F:\APPS\MONTEL or SYS:\APPS\MONTEL .

Unzip the files in the zip archive "disk1.zip" into this directory, or use the DOS installation program "install.exe" which does the same thing. Note, that the files will not be extracted if they already exist in the directory by the 'install.exe' program, so you will need to delete any files before re-installing.

The files are created in the destination directory and includes a sub directory called SETEXT32" (Setup Telephone Extension List (Ext32) ). This contains a Windows set up program which each user can run to set up system files (if any) and icons on their computer. This should be run once you (as the system administrator) have set up the PABX.INI file for each user. You may not need to run this if you set you user profiles centrally.

You then need to edit or create the PABX.INI file that holds the user information. This can be done , or using the associated MonTel tool EdUser.
