Again using Windows Explorer. browse to the location where you would like to
place the client software, right click and select PASTE. I suggest copying to your
remote’s PC’s desktop, or to a network a share from which you can copy
ScribeCLient.exe file to each client PC’s desktop.
Using the client software
The Scribe network client, is virtually identical to the Scribe PC software itself. It
allows you to remotely do almost most everything you can on the Scribe PC copier
itself. This does NOT include the premium utilities as detailed in Appendix C.
Before running the Scribeclient.exe client application, be sure the ScribePC copier is
powered on and available on the network. The client software will NOT work unless
the ScribePC is running as it functions as job server. Normally you can launch the
client as is. In some cases, like large corporate domains where network scanning time
can be slow, it may be best to use the command line switches below. These can
mitigate the time it takes the client to poll the network looking for hosts.
Optional command line switches for ScribeClient.exe:
/uid username
Specifies the username which has to be at least 6 chars
long and contain only small or capital letters (a-z, A-Z),
digits (0-9), and underscore sign (_).
/sid servername1,2…
Specifies the Scribe server name(s), separated by
commas or spaces.
