- Troubleshooting
- LittleBrother may not operate correctly if your network has
- switching hubs. If you see only your own computer in the
- statistics window, this may be an indication that your LAN uses
- switching hubs. Ask your Network Administrator if you are not sure.
- The online help files contain information on running LittleBrother in
- a switching hub environment.
-
- LittleBrother will put your network adapter in a special mode called
- "promiscuous mode." Some network adapters do not support this mode, and
- others may require a change to the adapter setup. Please contact your
- adapter vendor if you are not certain whether your adapter supports this
- mode.
-
- Windows NT Remote Access Service acts very much like a network adapter,
- and can sometimes interfere with LittleBrother's auto-detection routines.
- If this service is installed, please check the network settings from the
- LittleBrother Tools->Network menu. If these settings are incorrect, disable
- the Auto Detect and enter the correct settings manually.
-
- The LittleBrother database can be protected with a password for
- data security. If you forget your password, you should take the
- following steps:
- 1 - Exit the LittleBrother application
- 2 - Delete the files KLBDBASE.KLB and KLBDBASE.LK1 from your
- LittleBrother directory (usually C:\Kansmen\LB )
- 3 - Restart LittleBrother
- All previously collected data will be lost, but a new database
- will be created with no password.
-
- There is more troubleshooting information in the online help.
