8. Click the WINS Address tab. If your computer uses DNS, you do not need to
have Enable LMHOSTS Lookup selected.
Note: If WINS servers are available on the network, the LMHOST file can be used.
SWCC does not support WINS.
9. Check the General tab in the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties
window to determine the IP address for the system,.
10. Click the DNS tab in the Advanced TCP/IP Settings window to determine
the full name of the system.
For other operating systems
Generally, the entry for an Agent in the Client authorization list must match what
gethostbyaddr(<client IP address>) returns in the hosts agent h_name field if
gethostbyaddr(<client IP address>) is executed on the Agent system. If the hosts
files names on all systems are not identical, the
h_name returned may vary on
different Agent systems. For example,
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx client.somewhere.com client
returns client.somewhere.com in the h_name field, but
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx client client.somewhere.com
returns client in the h_name field.
The best way to determine what to use for a Client name in the Client
authorization list is to write a program that runs on the Agent system and prints
the
h_name field returned by gethostbyaddr(<client IP address>).
Multiple Agents
If the Agent system is running multiple SWCC Agents (for example, to support
different controller types), the client system must be authorized for all Agents. If
the client system is missing from any authorized Client list of an Agent, that
Agent cannot be added to the Navigation tree.
