c. < root directory extracted from the Windows NSWL client package zip file >\samples (for example, C:\nswl_win-9.3-51.5\ samples )

4.At a command prompt, run the following command from the <root directory extracted from the Windows NSWL client package zip file>\bin path:

nswl -install -f <directorypath> \log.conf

<directorypath>: Specifies the path to the configuration file ( log.conf ). By default, log.conf is in the < root directory extracted from the Windows NSWL client package zip file >\samples directory. But you can copy log.conf to your desired directory.

To uninstall the NSWL client on a Windows system

At a command prompt, run the following from the <root directory extracted from the Windows NSWL client package zip file>\bin path:

nswl -remove
