WATERS Global Server - Install Local Client

Getting the WWW Client

In order to use WATERS, you need database access software. The recommended interface is NCSA's Mosaic, (or other World-Wide Web browser). The World-Wide Web (WWW) is a distributed hypermedia information system running on the Internet, which has been selected to provide access to the technical reports stored in the database. NCSA supports Mosaic on X-based workstations, Apple Macintosh PCs, and MS-DOS PCs. These can be retrieved from ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu:/Web.

Getting the Document Viewers

The documents in the WATERS database are of many different types. At the minimum, you should have software to preview PostScript, TIFF and DVI files. Appropriate software for Unix systems can be found in ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu:/Web/Mosaic-viewers.
