- Are you shure that you use the right command line?
- You have to call NWREADER with the following command:
-
- NWREADER <config file> <login name> <group> <access> <first name> <last name>
-
- I got the same message from NWREADER when I deleted the 'access' parameter.
-
- If this doesn't solve your problem please send me your 'NWREADER.CFG'
- and your BAT file from where NWREADER is started.
