SERVERHOST ="<name or ip-address of sever >" -  - the server name or ip-address to which the Agent will be connected

HIDEINDICATOR = "<0 | 1>"  - responsible for the presence of the Agent icon in the systems tree (0 –no, 1 –yes)

«Quiet» installation is intended for remote installation of the program to a large number of computers in the network. In this case the setup program will not produce any dialogs.

Then, for instance, having administration rights, you will be able to:

- run the «Server» service if it has not been started;

- provide a general access to the folder with the «epr_agent_setup.msi»

- create script to run installation for any agent (e.g.  agent_setup.cmd):

====================================================

if not exist "%ProgramFiles%\Elcomsoft\Distributed Password Recovery\epr_agent_setup_en.msi" (

pushd \\server\share\directory

epr_agent_setup.msi

)

 ====================================================

 \\server\share\directory  - indicate the full UNC-path to the directory with the distributive;

- create Group Policy for a certain user group. Enter file name agent_setup.cmd as Logon Script for this Group Policy.

This way you can remotely install the Agent to the network machines.
