Help for the administrator

Using File Manager

To start the Profile Editor using File Manager:

  1. Log into Windows as a user with VisionFS Administrator privileges.

  2. In File Manager, from the Disk menu, select Connect Network Drive.

  3. Choose an unused drive letter.

  4. In the Path box, enter:

    \\server\visiontools

    Replace server with the name of the UNIX server.

  5. Click OK.

  6. If prompted, enter the VisionFS Administrator's password for this VisionFS server. By default, this is the user's UNIX password.

  7. Double-click the visionfs folder.

  8. Run the Profile Editor by double-clicking profedit.exe.

In place of step 4, you can also browse the workgroups for the VisionFS server. When you've found the server, click it, then click visiontools.

If Windows reports an error when you click the server, or doesn't list any shares, enter the path as shown in step 4. You'll need to do this if your password for this VisionFS server is different from your Windows password, or if you're using UNIX passwords (the default authentication mode) from Windows NT 3.51.


NOTE: This is a Windows problem, beyond the control of VisionFS.

If you can't locate the VisionFS server or start the Profile Editor, see ``Accessing the server and shares''.
