Configuring ZENworks to Control Deep Freeze using DFC
Prior to Thawing or Freezing workstations using ZENworks, you must create application objects that
tell ZENworks the appropriate commands to run on target workstations.
To ensure that the command line passwords remain secure, the distribution scripts will be part of the
application objects in the NDS tree. This ensures that users without access to the application objects
cannot extract a command line password from the script.
These steps assume the DFC file has been copied to the C:\ partition, and that the command line
password is
cmdpassword
. You can alter the path to the file and the command line password to fit your
environment.
