Minimum Console Requirements
For the remote console, you can use any ANSI X3.64 compatible terminal or terminal emulator with a
modem or RS-232 connection. For best results, use an ANSI color terminal that supports 25-line mode and
IBM PC character set. In addition, you will need:
•
A 486-based (or faster) computer with 12 MB of available disk space.
•
A communications link to the server, either through a modem or a direct serial connection.
•
pcANYWHERE32 console software. You can make master diskettes of pcANYWHERE32 software
from the HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM that comes with each HP NetServer system.
•
Microsoft Windows 95, or Windows NT Workstation 3.51 or 4.0.
Installing pcANYWHERE32 on the Remote Console
See the instructions in the preceding chapter in the "Installing and Configuring pcANYWHERE32 at the
Remote Console" section to do the initial modem setup of pcANYWHERE32 at the remote console. Then do
the following to enable Graphic Console Redirection of your Windows NT NetServer.
1. Run pcANYWHERE32 from the pcANYWHERE32 program group in your Windows Program
Manager.

and modem type are set for your remote console. Microsoft Windows 95 and NT 4.0 will present you
with a pre-configured list of Unimodem entries for your selection. Windows NT 3.51 will present
you with COM port options.
5. Click the Settings tab and confirm the server's phone number.
6. Click OK to return to the main program window. Your remote console is now configured to enable
Graphic Console Redirection. Proceed to the next section to set up the server.
NOTE
You can copy and paste the connection icon multiple times to create an icon for each HP
NetServer you want to manage. Be sure to modify the server name and phone number
entry for server by right-clicking on the icon and going into "Properties…".
