4.2 Installing/updating Acronis components on remote machines
Acronis True Image Management Console allows for group installation and updates of
Acronis True Image Echo Enterprise Server (local version) and Acronis True Image Agent
for Windows on remote computers. To perform any of these operations, you will need
administrator rights on the target machines.
Installation of Acronis components onto remote machines running all Windows Vista
editions is not possible. You will have to install the components locally on such
computers.
If the remote computer runs Windows XP, the option
Control panel -> Folder options
-> View -> Use simple file sharing
must be disabled on that computer.
