FAQ - Office-Logic Remote


 


  • Do I need to run Office-Logic HOST on my network for Office-Logic Remote?

    You must set up Office-Logic Host to use Office-Logic Remote.  To set up Office-Logic Host, you must first decide whether the remote user will connect using a modem and phone line or an internet connection (or both). If you choose to use an internet connection, the PC running Office-Logic Host must be continuously connected to the internet with a static IP address. Your internet provider will assist you with obtaining a static IP address and setting up the PC to use it. Usually the PC running Office-Logic Host is on all the time and must be logged in to the network. It can run on a dedicated PC, or a user's workstation if desired.
    To start Office-Logic Host, simply run OLHOST32.EXE in the Office-Logic global directory on the server. You can either start it with "Start/Run" or create a shortcut in the "Startup" group so it starts automatically. You will need to select File/Options from the pull-down menu and specify the global and master (usually the same as global) directories.

    If your Office-Logic Remote users will be connecting to Office-Logic Host through an IP connection, then you will need to open port 2661 on your firewall and have it redirected to the workstation or server that is running OLHOST32.  Port 2661 is the registered port number for Office-Logic Host .

  • How do I install my Office-Logic Remote serial number?

    The Office-Logic Remote activation code needs to be entered during installation.  If you have already installed Office-Logic Remote as a 30-day trial and need to enter the activation code, then you will need to run the Office-Logic Remote install program again.  You will NOT lose any e-mail or data by re-installing over your 30-day trial.  The License page will appear towards the end of the installation.  From the License page, select the "Add License" button and enter your activation code.  Click on the Add button once you have entered your activation code, and you will see your serial number in the License Window.  Enter your company name in the Licensed To field and click the OK button to exit.
