It is important to note that NetServices does NOT install any of these extended services. NetServices simply provides a simple Graphical User Interface to turn them on & off.

Many of the services that NetServices can control are available via Installer.app at the CopyCoder's repository (see below for instructions on adding it to your source list). Should you have any difficult accessing services that you have installed from other sources, please uninstall them and reinstall from CopyCoder's repository.

Any questions regarding installing or maintainence of extended Network Services should be directed to the companies providing that specific software.

Any questions regarding NetServices or suggestions of ways to extend NetServices capabilities including additional services to add - please contact Greg Hartstein at copycoder@roadrunner.com
