Can I run SekChek if the target machine has no diskette drive?


Yes.

With SekChek for Windows, you can copy the Scan software to a directory on the Server, or to a directory on a workstation attached to the Server. You can even run it from a diskette drive on a workstation attached to the Server.

However, you must then logon (locally) to the Server, and execute the software from the remote drive or directory. You will get incorrect results if you logon to the workstation and execute the software from there.

With SekChek for UNIX, the best way is to logon to a workstation and use ftp to transfer the Scan software to a directory on the target (UNIX) machine. To ensure correct results, you must remember to transfer the software in binary (not ASCII) mode.

With SekChek for NetWare the question does not apply because the Scan software is not run from the Server. You must run it from a Client 32 workstation (running Windows 200X) attached to the network.
