XAddress 
XAddress is a utility that translates network addresses into Windows Net BIOS 
computer names for tracking in the XCOUNTER.LOG file. If XAddress is enabled, the 
workstation field in the xcounter.log file will appear as \\ComputerName instead of the 
usual NetworkNumber/NetworkAddress entry. XAddress requires Windows 95, 
98/Me, or NT/2000. Users must be granted write permission to 
\SYS\PUBLIC \XADDRESS.INI file. 
XAddress scans all of a workstation's connected to the login server and writes an 
entry for each workstation into: 
\SYS\PUBLIC \XADDRESS.INI. 
This entry maps the computer's network address to the Windows computer name. 
XADDRESS.EXE can be added to the Startup program group, or to a login script: 
#COMMAND /C SYS:PUBLIC\XADDRESS.EXE 
Note: XAddress requires NWCALLS.DLL, This file is included on the XCounter 
distribution CD. Workstations that have Client 32 installed will have this DLL installed. 
XBalance.exe 
XBalance is a small Windows utility for users to view their account balances quickly.  
XBalance requires Windows 95/98/Me NT/2000 and can be added to the Startup 
group or to any login script. It will update the balance display if it is left running; 
likewise, it will also display the balance when it is minimized. 
XBalance obtains the balance information through communication with the XCounter 
Data Server. Creating XCounter.INI in the same directory where XBalance.exe is 
stored can configure this connection. Use the following format: 
[Preferences] 
DataServer=\\Sales 
where \\Sales is the name of the computer running the XCounter Data Server service. 
The double-backslash before the computer name is required. 
Otherwise, the user will be asked to choose from a list of computers. 
XBalance remembers the last server accessed by storing XCounter.INI in the same 
directory where XBalance.exe is stored. If XBalance is kept in a shared directory and 
unauthorized users are not to change the server setting, create XCounter.INI as 
shown above, and allow users only read privileges in that directory. 
XBalance supports and displays the following languages English, French, German, 
Spanish, Portuguese, Finnish, Dutch, Czech, Swedish, Danish and Italian.
