One-Click Package

Where to Use

Use the "One-Click" configuration option to build an easy-to-install Host package. The output .exe file is a self-extracting Host installer with your custom settings. A remote user will only need to run the file to install Host on their computer.

Sample Goals

For the purposes of this tutorial, we will assume you have the following goals:

• Goal 1 Enable Internet-ID connection on Host.
• Goal 2 Configure Host to send the Internet-ID access credentials to you via email.
• Goal 3 Enable notification panel.
• Goal 4 Protect Host settings with a password.

Let’s see how you can configure the Host installer to achieve these goals.

Configuration process

Run Viewer as an administrator and select Tools ➝ MSI Configurator:

Step 1: Specify how the configuration process should proceed

Select Online configurator and click Next:

Step 2: Select the type of distribution

Select One-Click package and click Next.

Step 3: Advanced options

"Internet-ID" tab

On the "Internet-ID" tab do the following:

1. Select the following checkboxes (Goal 1):
   • Set or update Internet-ID connection settings
   • Generate a new Internet-ID code
   • Send Internet-ID to email
2. Select Automatically generate Host password. Each Host will have a unique randomly generated access password.
3. Select Use default (public) Internet-ID server. Each Host will use our company's Internet-ID server in the cloud to broker a remote connection.

Configuring SMTP

In this example we'll be using a free Gmail account without two-factor authentication. Adding SMTP server information will let Hosts send emails with access credentials to the email address that you specify (Goal 2).

1. Click Configure SMTP...:
2. Enter your SMTP server account details and access credentials. Modify the message template if necessary and click Send test email:
3. If you entered your email account credentials correctly, a "successful" message will appear:
4. You should receive a test message to your "Destination email" address:
5. In the Configure SMTP window click OK. Read the disclaimer message and click Yes if you agree (and No if you do not agree):
6. Click Next to proceed to the next configuration step:

Step 4: Settings update

Select Pre-configure and enable General and network settings. Click Finish:

The Host configuration window will open:

Enable Show notification panel (Goal 3):

Navigate to Settings protection:

Select Password protect settings. Enter and confirm settings protection password (Goal 4). Click OK and close the settings protection window:

Click OK to close Host settings configuration window:

The configuration process will begin:

At the end of the configuration process the output file will download:

You will be prompted to save the output file. Choose a destination and click Save:

Configuration has been finished successfully. Click OK to close the configuration window.

Installing Host

This is how to install Host from the configured package:

Copy the file onto the target computer and double click the file to run it:

In the User Account Control (UAC) prompt click Yes:

You will be prompted if you want to proceed with the installation. Click Yes:

The installation process will begin in the background. Once it is finished, the Host icon will appear in the system tray on the remote computer:

Connecting to the remote PC

During Host configuration you instructed the program to use your SMTP server for sending the Internet-ID code and a randomly generated access password to your email address.

Once Host installation is completed Host connects to your SMTP server and sends an email message with access credentials:

The "Encrypted code" text block contains your Host access credentials in an encrypted form. Now you need to add a new connection to your Viewer's address book:

1. Open Viewer, click Connection → Add using code:
2. Copy the encrypted code from the email message and paste into the form. Click OK:
3. A new connection will be created in the address book with computername as connection name:
4. To connect to the remote PC in the Full Control mode, right click on the connection entry and select Full Control from the menu:
5. A remote desktop window will open. Now that a remote session has started, a notification panel appears on the remote PC. You enabled the corresponding Host option during one-click configuration (goal 3):
6. Use the same routine for each new remote PC that you want to add to your address book.
