  The solution is you have to install the application in 'administrator' mode to register the OCX control.

Sometimes I see a cross in the 'NetMan' icon in the Task tray. What does this mean?
  The cross in NetMan icon in task tray indicates that is not able to find the server. Go to “Start Menu>> Programs >>SmartWorks 2.0 – Personal Edition >> SmartWorks Server” and click on “Start NetMan Server” to start the NetMan server.

When I position my cursor at the Netman icon in the task tray I get a message. What does it signify?
  This is the status message of NetMan as a tool tip.
The message you get here can be NetMan Client: Server Not Found! – This means that the client is not able to find the NetMan Server. To start the server go to “Start Menu>> Programs >> SmartWorks 2.0 – Personal Edition >> SmartWorks Server” and click on “Start NetMan Server” NetMan Client: Server Found! – This means that the client is able to find the NetMan server .

What does this NetMan really do?
  NetMan – Personal Edition gives hardware and software configuration of your system. NetManNote allows you to paste notes on your desktop to remind you of your day-to-day tasks. NetMan – Enterprise Edition will allow you view hardware and software configuration of all the PCs across the network. Using NetManNote you can send and receive notes to other PCs on your network.

NetMan runs always on my machine. Will it bring down the performance of my PC?
  No. NetMan is a service and hence it runs always on a system. It performs action only when requested so by the user or by NetManServer.
Does NetMan use SNMP?
  No. NetMan is a service by itself that has to run on all the systems to be managed. It uses TCP/IP to communicate to the server and vice-versa.
 

 





When the first version of NetMan was released, I installed it just because I was asked to do it.
My understanding of NetMan was that it is a tool for the network administrator and to help him get system information of all the computers in the LAN, we need to install it.
