First, you add a computer's name or IP address to the Computer List. Then, you
deploy the Norton Ghost Agent to the remote computer. Once the agent is installed,
the computer automatically restarts. After the computer restarts, you can then
connect to the computer. When you do, the Norton Ghost product interface changes
to reflect the status of the remote computer. At any time, you can switch back to
manage your own, local computer.
