v Remote User Authorization for Screen Access
If the Remote User Authorization for Screen Access option is enabled, a
remote user cannot use either Remote Workstation Control or Screen
View on your system without your permission. When this option is
enabled and a remote user attempts to use one of these services on your
system, a window will pop up on your desktop alerting you that a
remote user is attempting to use the Remote Workstation Control or
Screen View service and asking whether you want to permit this user to
use this service on your system. You can click Yes or No. If you do not
make a selection within 15 seconds (for example, if you are not sitting at
your system when the access attempt is made), Netfinity Manager will
automatically prevent the remote user from using the service on your
system.
v Disable DNS Name Resolution
If the Disable DNS Name Resolution option is enabled, Netfinity
Manager will use only a numeric TCP/IP address (for example,
8.24.67.32) to communicate with remote systems and will not attempt to
resolve the numeric address into an alphanumeric, Domain Name Server
(DNS) address (for example, your.system.ibm.com). Select this option if
you are using Netfinity Manager is a WINS networking environment or if
you are using TCP/IP in an environment that does not have a Domain
Name Server.

Timeout default setting is 15 seconds. This default setting might not need to
be altered.
g. Save the configuration and continue.

Note: The configuration can be changed later by double-clicking the
Network Driver Configuration object in the Netfinity Manager

program displays a list of changes that must be made to the system
configuration files, and asks whether the installation program should make
the changes. For example, if Netfinity Manager for Windows 95 is being
installed, the installation program will display a list of changes that must be
made to the CONFIG.SYS file.
Click either Yes or No.
Note: These changes must be made to the system configuration for Netfinity
Manager to run correctly.
