2. Start the WIBU-Key Server via
   • Home » Programs » WIBU-KEY » Network Server
     or
   • from the program directory via …\Program Files\WIBUKEY\Server\WkSvW32.exe
3. By right-clicking on the server icon in the taskbar and selecting the “Status” menu item, you can check the currently logged in users. The WIBU-KEY Server can also be set up as a service under Windows NT/2000/XP by right-clicking on the server icon in the taskbar and menu item “Start as service”. This eliminates the need to log in as a user on the server.

Configuration of the clients

1. Any IT Tools for ETS 3 that has already been installed must be uninstalled.
2. Install the latest versions of IT Tools for ETS 3.
3. On the PCs that you want to connect to the WIBU-Key Server in order to activate the IT tools, changes in the registry are required. Please download and execute the appropriate registration file for the following IT Tools for ETS3.

  DWORD Value: WibuSubsystem=3
• HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IT GmbH\ETSMacro\2.0
  DWORD Value: WibuSubsystem=3

In addition, execute points 1 to 4 on the server, as described under Configuration of the Clients.

Open the Network tab under Start » Settings » Control Panel » WIBU-KEY and delete the check mark under WIBU-KEY Subsystems under “Local (core)” by clicking on it and then confirm this with OK.
