Lindy MC5-IP User Manual

Particularly useful for complex MC5 configurations and the control of remote 
installations, KVMADMIN is a powerful administration tool.
KVMADMIN is based upon the successful VNC viewer and uses the same 
security system. Rather than a graphical interface usch as the standard viewer, 
KVMADMIN uses command line control to provide the following administration 
facilities:

•  Discover and adjust the MC5 configuration, including host systems,
•  Save and restore the MC5 configuration,
•  Set user names and passwords,
•  Download the event log,
•  Set custom video modes.

The use of KVMADMIN is strictly limited to the ‘admin’ user and for security 
purposes it is not possible to retrieve user names or passwords from the MC5.
To use KVMADMIN you require the IP address and admin password of the MC5 
unit. The command line is as follows:

where <command> is one of the following:

•  -setconfig <config-file>
•  -getconfig <config-file>
•  -setusers <csv-file>
•  -getlog <log-file>
•  -gethosts <csv-file>
•  -sethosts <csv-file>
•  -setmodes <csv-file> 

For instance, the command line:

... downloads the current configuration from the MC5 unit at the given address 
and stores it in the local file kvm1.cfg.
Whereas the command line:

... configures the usernames and passwords for the same unit from the local file 
users.csv.

with the utility.
