How to install NetPatrol ?
1) IP settings
* Note that this settings
are note required.
The easiest way to use netpatrol
is to configure the MAIN MACHINE ( the machine that you will use to
monitor other machines) with a STATIC IP.
You can do this by configuring the Network Settings in Control Panel.
Open NetWork Settings choose "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" Properties.
Disable the DHCP ( used to obtain an IP address automatically) and
choose some IP. Normaly 192.168.0.1 or 10.0.0.1.
This settings are valid for a private network.
If you will want to use the Internet to
monitor another computers, you need a VALID IP from Internet. xDSL,
Dial-Up connections don't have a VALID IP in the network.
Attention: If you never changed this settings
don't try. To change this you need network configuration skills.
2) Download
netpatrol.zip from DigitalWeb and
Unzip.
Inside you get 3 files. NetPatrol
Server.exe, NetPatrol Client.exe and setup.exe.

Select "NetPatrol Server" in the computer
that you will be monitoring from. Just install this one time.
Select "NetPatrol Client" in all the computers that needs to be
monitored.

where the server is installed and go to PROMPT OF MS-DOS. Then type
ipconfig.exe. You will see some like this:
