If you need to install a Host module at a remote PC where you do not have a physical access and remote user is computer illiterate - you may create an MSI-installer file and send it to remote user. All the last needs to perform - just to start the file. |
First you need to choose an installation package of Anyplace Control |
|
Then you have to set Access Password and Account Data (Account Name, Account Password)
|
For Advanced users there are Advanced Host modules Settings |
If everything was performed OK, you will get a message that a silent installation package was created. A pop-up window will show you the place where the file is stored. |
Send a created file to your remote user via e-mail or any other way. After the file is started - a program would install the software itself providing you with ability to connect to remote PC with minimal remote user's participation. |
