Checking the Remoteboot Installation

After you start the Remoteboot service for the first time, check the server's event log for entries related to the Remoteboot service. Use Event Viewer in the Administrative Tools group.

You should also use Remoteboot Manager's configuration and security checking features after installation and after you add or remove support for an operating system.

To check the remoteboot configuration

1. On the Configure menu, click Check Configurations.

2. Click Yes.

This checks which operating systems are available for remoteboot clients. Remoteboot Manager offers these as choices for profiles.

To check security settings in the remoteboot directory

1. On the Configure menu, click Fix Security.

2. Click Yes.

This overwrites permissions throughout the <systemroot>\Rpl directory, creates accounts for remoteboot clients and the RPLUSER local account (if they don't already exist), and updates the domain entry in Lanman.ini files for remoteboot clients to match the server's own domain/workgroup.
