The Guide to setting up IPC...
- First of all download the latest version of IPC for your OS over at the download page
- Unpack the .rar file with WinRar or any other program
- Start the .jar file by double clicking. This will open up IPC in a very small version with only two entries
(LAN- and WAN-Port). Please note that two .txt files have been created on startup (settings.txt and ips.txt) which
will allow you to configure IPC to your liking and needs
- Configure settings.txt according to the instructions
- Make sure that your local Administrator account is activated
(check if there is a user named "Administrator" under Control Panel -> Users)
- If there is no account named Administrator please run cmd.exe as admin (right click -> Run as administrator)
and type: "net user administrator /active:yes" (without the quotes)
- Access your PCs users again where you should now find your local Administrator account.
Please set a password for that account.
- Open ips.txt and add the entries you need (see examples and instructions in ips.txt and the ReadMe file)
- Restart IPC for all the changes to take effect and have fun :)
... and how to use it:
- Clicking one of the name buttons on the left will copy the corresponding IP to your clipboard
- "Ping" will start a continuous cmd ping to that IP
- "Config" will set you LAN interface accordingly for you to access that IP
- Select one of your customers in the dropdown menu and hit "Launch SSA and copy" to launch System Status
and copy the IP to your clipboard - that way it only requires a simple paste and you're good to go
- "Settings" will open a new window where you can open one of the config files directly in Notepad
- "Restart IPC" will restart IPC for all the changes you made in the config files to take effect
- "Free IP-Config" allows you to set any desired IP without having to navigate all the way to your NICs properties
