When you have entered all required information, click the Driver Enabled
check box to activate the driver on startup.
If the system supports multiple network interfaces, add additional network
drivers by repeating steps b and c.
d. Identify the system with System Keywords (optional).
To make full use of the Remote System Manager's discovery process, identify
the system (and each of the Netfinity Manager systems that are on the
network) with descriptive system keywords. Enter these keywords in the
appropriate System Keywords fields.
e. Select Netfinity Manager Options (optional)
Click on the Options button to open the Netfinity Manager Options window.
The Netfinity Manager Options window contains special options that affect
Netfinity Manager network operations. Available options include:
Force Remote Logons
If the Force Remote Logons option is enabled, the system will not be
able to save the User ID/Password combinations that were used when
accessing remote systems. This will force you to manually log on each
time a remote system is accessed.Service Execution Alerts
Service Execution Alerts
If the Service Execution Alerts option is enabled, the Netfinity Manager
Service Manager will generate a Netfinity Manager alert whenever one
of the user's Netfinity Manager services is started by a remote user. The
alert includes the name of the service that was run and information
about the user that started the service.
Show Network Support
If the Show Network Support option is enabled, the Netfinity Manager
Support Program (or Network Interface) will be visible as a minimized
process in the Windows NT 4.0 task bar. This enables the user to shut
down the Netfinity Manager Support Program. If the Netfinity Manager
Support Program is to remain invisible to the user, do not enable this
option.
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.
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.
