Via Internet Explorer

When Trend OfficeScan is installed to a computer running Windows NT Server 4.0 with IIS 3 or above, a web-based console is set up on the server. The password screen of this web site contains a link to a web-based download page that enables you to deploy the client software to Windows 95/98 and Windows NT workstations through the web page. This is a convenient way to deploy the software since you simply have to tell people throughout your company the URL where they can download the software and then it will automatically load when they open the URL in their browser.

To deploy software from the web page:

  1. Open the URL of the web-based deployment page in Internet Explorer. The default URL is:

http://<server name>/officescan/clientinstall/default.htm.

  1. Click the link labeled Public Access to take you to the web-based deployment page.
  2. A new page loads. Click the Install Now button to load the ActiveX control that installs the software to your computer.
  3. A window loads to display the progress of installing the software to the workstation. In addition, the workstation user might have to enter a password to the proxy server.
