An external modem or direct connection via one of the HP NetServer E
40’s two serial ports
•
pcANYWHERE32 communications software running on Windows NT
On the HP NetServer, pcANYWHERE32 host software is optionally installed as
part of the HP Support Anywhere installation.
Installing pcANYWHERE32 on the NetServer
During the installation of HP Support Anywhere, the user has the option to copy
pcANYWHERE32 host software to the HP NetServer. However, if the HP
NetServer you are setting up for remote access does not have pcANYWHERE32
server software already installed, you must install pcANYWHERE32 at the
NetServer. Otherwise, skip the installation steps and proceed to the following
section detailing the configuration of pcANYWHERE32 on the NetServer.
To install pcANYWHERE32 host software on the NetServer:
1. Insert the HP Navigator CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive and, at the DOS
command prompt, type:

where

is the drive letter of the HP NetServer’s CD-ROM drive.
Follow the instructions on the screen to install pcANYWHERE32.
2. Once pcANYWHERE32 is installed, restart the server and run
pcANYWHERE32 by double-clicking the pcANYWHERE32 program
icon in the pcANYWHERE32 program group.
Configuring pcANYWHERE32 on the NetServer
The first time you start pcANYWHERE32, the Smart Setup Wizard helps you
configure your system and prompts you for basic information including COM port
and modem type. Select the modem on the list that most closely matches the one
you intend to use.

port:
