I hope this helps anyone who is trying to set this up :


1. Install the DameWare Mini Remote Control client application in the machine where Altiris Deployment Solution is installed.

2. Locate the Deployment Solution share folder. (in a default Simple install it is: %ProgramFiles%\ Altiris\eXpress\Deployment Server)

3. Edit the file “RemoteControlTools.ini” and append the following 4 lines:

egrati

[DameWare Mini Remote Control]

Display-Name=

RemoteToolEXEFilePath=

CommandLine=

 

Use the following table as reference:

Once set, the RemoteControlTools.ini should look something like this:

4. Save the “RemoteControlTools.ini” file and launch Altiris Deployment Solution

5. DameWare will now be available as a custom Remote Control application available in Symantec Altiris Deployment Solution interface. If you decide not to set the –u, -p or –d arguments in the ini file, the credentials will be requested to you when you try to establish the MRC session.
