discovered, use Update Connector Manager to apply updates to your systems remotely. Updates can be applied to individual systems, or you can apply multiple updates to multiple systems, all from Netfinity Manager. You can also use Update Connector Manager to remove previously applied updates. Update Connector Manager also includes a scheduler that you can use to discover, apply, or remove updates automatically and periodically. Web Manager Configuration Use the Web Manager Configuration service to limit access to the Netfinity Manager for Web to user-specified TCP/IP host or ranges of TCP/IP host addresses. Enable or disable the Netfinity Manager for Web and specify the TCP/IP port number to which the Netfinity Manager Web server functions. Delaying Netfinity Manager startup on OS/2 systems In some cases, it might be necessary for you to delay the automatic startup of the Netfinity Manager Network Interface (NETFBASE.EXE) in order to allow other timesensitive applications to start up correctly or to allow your system to fully configure itself prior to beginning network operations. NETFBASE.EXE includes a parameter (WAIT) that you can use to specify the number of seconds that NETFBASE.EXE will wait before starting. During Netfinity Manager installation, the Netfinity Manager Network Interface object is placed in the Startup folder. To configure Netfinity Manager to wait a specified number of seconds before starting: 1. Shut down the Netfinity Manager Network Interface if it is running. 2. Open the Startup folder. 3. Using the right mouse button, click the Netfinity Manager Network Interface object. This will open the Netfinity Manager Network Interface context menu. 4. Click Settings to open the Netfinity Manager Network Interface Settings notebook. 5. In the Parameters field type WAIT:x where x is the number of seconds that you want the Netfinity Manager Network Interface to wait before starting. 6. Close the Netfinity Manager Network Interface Settings notebook. With the WAIT parameter set to x, whenever you start your system, the Netfinity Manager Network Interface will wait x seconds before starting. Note: This feature is available only on systems that are running OS/2.
