Step 3: Connect the First Computer
Now connect one Windows PC (most likely the one you have been using) to the
WD Sentinel server by installing Connector software on it.
Note: Before connecting a Mac computer to the WD Sentinel server,
you must first connect and configure the WD Sentinel server using a
Windows PC running compatible Windows client OS.
Installing the Connector software joins the client computer (Windows PC) to your
WD Sentinel Server and installs Launchpad and Dashboard. Users use Launchpad
to access server resources they have rights to, and the administrator (you) accesses
Dashboard for such tasks as managing the WD Sentinel server, setting up user
accounts, and managing access to shared folders. In addition, your WD Sentinel
server is configured to automatically back up your Windows PC.
Use the following one time procedure for every Windows PC you connect to the WD
Sentinel server:
1. Click the Download software for Windows arrow:

Note: If prompted to do so, type the user name and password of an
account that has administrator permissions on this client computer.
