To access a keyserver from a Macintosh, select Chooser from the Apple menu. Click on AppleShare and then select FAS Computer Services. A list of connected servers will appear. Choose FAS Server_1. A dialog box will appear with a list of places to connect to. Choose General Software. This will cause a file cabinet icon called General Software to appear on your desktop.

Open General Software. Inside you will find several folders full of applications listed by their topic, such as Internet Tools or Graphics. Look through them until you find the application you want.

If you are going to use this application frequently, such as a stats package you need to analyze experimental data, we recommend that you copy the application onto your hard drive. Just click and drag the application's icon onto your desktop or whichever folder you want to keep it in. This does not violate any copyright or licensing laws because the application has been set up to automatically check for a free license every time you use it. Keeping a copy of the application on your hard drive will make it run faster and will help keep the applications server from slowing down because it is trying to run all of the applications it maintains.

There are several other places where you can find keyserved applications. Feel free to browse through the servers available through AppleShare.
