102 IBM Tivoli Remote C ontrol Across Firewalls
The Remote Control Proxies components can be installed on any machine in
your environment whether part of the TME environment or not. Refer to
Chapter 2, “Implementation planning” on page 57, to check on the various
supported operating systems and maintenance l evels.
The Remote Control Proxies components code is shipped with t he IBM Tivoli
Remote Control 3.8 media, the same you used to install the IBM Tivoli Remote
Control Server component. The installation process for the RC Target and RC
Controller Proxies is the same and uses the same source image and path. The
differences are in the configuration piece only. You can refer to Chapter 2,
“Implementation planning” on page 57 for details.
In order to install the Remote Control Proxies, issue the following command:
On Windows:
<CD-ROM drive>\new\RCPROXY\w32-ix86\setup.exe
On AIX:
#. ./<CD-ROM drive>/new/RCPROXY/aix/install.sh ./setup.bin
Table3-1 shows the configuration settings we used in our lab for this scenario
during the RC Target Proxy installation.
