Note:
When SMARTsend is installed on a computer which is not a member of a domain, it is
recommended that a full backup be made of the host computer after users have been
created via MMC. In the event of a system crash, such as a hard drive failure, the computer
should be restored from this full backup. This will ensure that user accounts in SMARTsend
will continue to match those on the standalone computer.
