using TCP/IP in an environment that does not have a Domain Name Server. To enable one or more of the available Netfinity Manager Options: (1) Click Options.... (2) Select one or more Netfinity Manager options. (3) Click Save. f. Set the Network Time-out Value (optional). The Network Time-out field shows the number of seconds that Netfinity Manager will attempt to communicate with a remote system that is not responding. If Netfinity Manager does not establish contact with the remote system within this time, it cancels the communication attempt. The Network Time-out default setting is 15 seconds. This default setting might not need to be altered. g. Save the configuration and continue. Click Save to save the configuration. Then, click Exit to continue. Note: The configuration can be changed later by double-clicking the Network Driver Configuration object in the Netfinity Manager folder. 10. After finishing configuring the system for network access, the installation program displays a list of changes that must be made to the system configuration files, and asks whether the installation program should make the changes. For example, if Netfinity Manager for Windows 95 is being installed, the installation program will display a list of changes that must be made to the CONFIG.SYS file. Click either Yes or No. Note: These changes must be made to the system configuration for Netfinity Manager to run correctly. • If you click Yes the installation program automatically makes the necessary changes to the system configuration. • If you click No the commands are saved to a file named CONFIG.NEW in the destination directory (and to AUTOEXEC.NEW, if appropriate) so that they can be added later. 11. The installation is now complete. Shut down and restart the system for the system configuration changes to take effect. Netfinity Manager database support Netfinity Manager supports the collection and export of a vast amount of system-specific data to a Netfinity Manager database. Netfinity Manager databases can be created on database management systems using DB2®, Lotus Notes®, or Microsoft SQL. Microsoft SQL is supported through open Netfinity Manager 119
