The following combination of PROXY Pro Host and Windows tools can be used to customize and automatically deploy PROXY Pro Host to one or more target machines in your network:
uUse the command line utility PHSETUP to set PROXY Pro Host configuration options from a command line. See "Configure Host from the command line."
uIn addition to specifying options in the PROXY Pro Host Control Panel window, use PHSETUP to lock down other PROXY Pro Host features. See “Lock-down settings”.
uUse the Windows MSIEXEC installation command line utility to install a customized PROXY Pro Host configuration. This feature is useful if you want to push PROXY Pro Host with the same set of configuration options to a large number of target machines automatically. See “Install Host with the MSIEXEC command line”.
uUse a login script to run commands at login time and then use this script to configure an installed Host with PHSETUP, or install the Host using MSIEXEC.
NOTE: The PROXY Pro Deployment Tool can also be used to mass deploy PROXY Pro Host configurations. For more information, see the PROXY Pro Deployment Tool Administration Guide.
No matter which method you choose to install PROXY Pro Host, the configuration settings can be modified later using either PHSETUP from the command line, or directly from the PROXY Pro Host Control Panel window.
NOTE: For the Host to be available and the installation to be completed, you must reboot the computer after initial installation.
NOTE: To configure a copy of PROXY Pro Host that is already installed on a Host computer, you must have the administrative rights to configure the product on the Host computer. On Windows Vista and Server 2008 platforms, you may have to run PHSETUP in an already-elevated command prompt (which you may not be able to do from a login script). See “Security tab”.
