46 EncrypTight User Guide
Changes to the local ETKMS configuration or EncrypTight software may necessitate changes to the batch
file, as described in Table 9.
Prior to configuring the batch file do the following:
1 Add a ETKMS LM in ETEMS (see “Adding a Local ETKMS” on page 44).
2 Launch the local ETKMS (Tools > Launch ETKMS LM). Successfully launching the local ETKMS
demonstrates that the IP address is configured correctly and that there are no conflicting services
running on the management station.
After launching the local ETKMS, configure the batch file to start the ETKMS automatically.
To configure the batch file:
1Open the
start.bat file in a text editor and modify the variables described in Table 10.
2 Save the file and copy it to the
\Programs\Startup folder for the management PC user. A typical
path might be something like this:
C:\Documents and Settings\username.domainname\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\.
The next time that you log in to the management PC, the ETKMS software will start and open a
command line window.

Configuring External ETKMSs
