Remote Administrator 2.2

This software is somewhat of a hassle to install as the supplied installer does not support silent installations. This method will install the server only and is based on the method that is recommended by Famatech.

• Install the software to a test machine.
• Configure all server settings and install the license file.
• See the Remote Administrator manual for instructions on how to create a registry settings file. The manual is available from the Famatech web site.
• Copy r_server.exe, raddrv.dll, and the registry settings, settings.reg, to your software repository.
• Put install.bat and remove.bat into your software repository.
