SUMMARY
The SourceSafe Macintosh product is a command-line-only tool. Therefore, the SourceSafe executables cannot be run from Finder; they must be run from Macintosh Programmers Workshop (MPW) or ToolServer.



MORE INFORMATION
To run SSADMIN on the Macintosh:
 * 1) Start MPW or ToolServer. (See your documentation on these tools for information on how to set them up.)
 * 2) Set the Directory to the SourceSafe Mac folder where the Macintosh version of SSADMIN is located.

For example, on MPW, set the directory to "HD:srcsafe:mac:" where 'HD' is the drive, 'srcsafe' is the SourceSafe folder, and 'mac' is the Macintosh subfolder.
 * 1) Run SSADMIN.
 * 2) You are presented with a menu of options.
