From the directory in which you installed IPSentry. IPSentry -install [-auto] | -uninstall Where: -install = Install IPSentry as a System Service -auto = Set service startup mode to Automatic You can change this in service settings from control panel. -uninstall = Uninstall IPSentry as a System Service You can either do a NET START IPSENTRY from the command prompt, restart your system, or start the service from Services in Control Panel. *Note: Don't set IPSentry to interact with desktop. If you do, IPSentry will be stopped if you logout and log back in without a system restart. =============================================================== IPSET30.EXE is a self extracting setup utility. Just run it and follow the prompts. The defaults should suffice. =============================================================== ------------------- General Information ------------------- IPSentry is a Windows NT / 95 utility that will continuously monitor all your internet and intranet TCP/IP services 24 hours a day, ensuring, your email servers, web site, ftp server, news server, and all other TCP/IP services are responding correctly. In the event of failure, IPSentry will notify you (according to the defined schedule) via all or 1 of several different methods. For more information, visit http://www.crackthecode.com/IPSentry/ ------------------- Before you install ------------------- You should have TCP/IP networking protocol up and functioning before attempting to configure IPSentry. Obviously, without the TCP/IP stack available, IPSentry will NOT function properly.

(See the MODEMS applet in the control panel). ------------------- Installation ------------------- IPSET22.EXE is a self extracting WinZip archive.
