Question

Can I control a RRC client from more than one tutor?



Resolution

Instructions

You will need to make a small modification to the registry to enable this.

First, close the Tutor.
Open regedit.exe (Start, Run, regedit - hit ENTER)
Add the following registry keys if they do not exist: -

Registry location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Productive Computer Insight\PCICTL\
 
In the PCICTL key add the following String value:
ValueName: NSSuseHKLM
Value: 1

Close the registry.Open the Tutor and go to School, Configuration from the dropdown menus at the top.


In the Administration/Security section, check the box for Use Shared Data File.


Next go to the Profile section, highlight Ranger Remote Control and click the EDIT button.


In the Advanced section, click the box for Use Shared Data Files.


Also click the box at the top for Enable Advanced Options.


* you will need to move your current files (client.nss and group.nss file to a new folder accessable by everyone. 

 We advise using the C:\Program Files\Ranger Remote Control\ folder for this).


Click the Change button for the two files and browse to the new location where the files are stored.
