Chapter 6 Setting Up NT Graphics Console Redirection Using pcANYWHERE32

Customizing Your Connection Items

If you want to rename a connection item, right-click it, select Rename, and type in a new name. You can also copy, paste, and reconfigure a connection item to create an icon for each server you manage.

Installation and configuration of pcANYWHERE32 at the client is now complete. Proceed to the next section for instructions on the use of pcANYWHERE32 to redirect the NT graphics console.

Using NT Graphics Console Redirection

From your remote client, to enable graphics console redirection (the ability to redirect what’s graphically displayed on your server) either over the LAN or via modem, follow the directions listed below.

For a LAN connection

To initiate NT remote control via the LAN connection, do not go through the TopTools Remote Control web interface. Simply run the pcANYWHERE32 application at your client. Click the Remote Control action button. Then double-click the connection item you created for the server you want to manage. Your NetServer’s console is immediately redirected to your client.

For a Modem connection

1.From your remote client, connect to server’s HP TopTools Remote Control card using dial-up networking.

2.Once a connection is established, use your web browser to login to HP TopTools Remote Control and click the Remote Control tab.

3.Click the "NT Remote Control" button. This switches control of the TopTools Remote Control card serial port to the server. You have 5 minutes to establish a connection using pcANYWHERE32 before TopTools Remote Control resets the serial port.

4.Hang up the dial-up networking connection. Right-click on the dial-up networking icon on the task bar (shown below) and click "hang up."
