-
- LANVIEW is part of the new generation of utilities started by
- McAfee Associates with PRO-VIEW(tm) and PRO-VIEW for Windows(tm).
-
- LANVIEW allows you to perform PRO-VIEW's unique low-level
- system functions over remote workstations on a network.
-
-
- HOW IT WORKS
-
- To allow LANVIEW to access workstations, install LVREMOTE on
- each workstation. LVREMOTE is a memory resident (TSR) program
- which acts as an interface between workstations and LANVIEW.
-
- LANVIEW and LVREMOTE can be run on any IBM PC or compatible
- computer which uses the IPX/SPX protocol, such as Novell NetWare.
-
- NOTE: LVREMOTE and LANVIEW should NOT be installed on
- the same workstation.
-
- To start LVREMOTE type:
-
- LVREMOTE
-
- at the DOS prompt. LVREMOTE will then be installed in the
- computer's memory.
-
- LVREMOTE has following options:
-
- /Nxxx - Sets workstation name to "xxx"; where "xxx" is any
- combination of alphanumeric symbols no more than 32
- characters long.
-
- NOTE: The LVREMOTE name option does not change any of
- the workstation's existing names or addresses
- and is only used to identify the workstation
- while LANVIEW is active.
-
- /Pxxx - Sets workstation access password to "xxx"; where "xxx"
- is any combination of alphanumeric symbols no more than
- 32 characters long.
-
- /U - Unload LVREMOTE from memory.
-
- /+ - Enable LVREMOTE (default option).
-
- /- - Disable LVREMOTE but remain resident in memory
-
- /? - Show command-line options.
-
-
- To start LANVIEW type:
-
- LV
-
- at the command prompt. This will start LANVIEW.

- NOTE FROM THE AUTHORS:
-
- Dear User,
-
- This release of the LANVIEW is purely experimental; we have no idea
- how useful or powerful this tool will be, or even how dangerous. We
- only know that LANVIEW represents a new concept in network computing
- and can be used to accomplish many things.
-
- So, please feel free to experiment with LANVIEW and give us your
- feedback on in.
-
- IMPORTANT: This version of the LANVIEW has all the edit routines
- disabled. We think this is a good idea, at least for this
- experimental release. So, don't be afraid about possible
- data loss, LANVIEW WILL NOT WRITE TO YOUR COMPUTERS' DISKS
- OR MEMORY.
-
- All questions, suggestions, comments and complaints are greatly
- appreciated and cheerfully accepted. Please feel free to contact the
