Client installation

 

The installation of the client applications can be done on any Windows-based computer. You can install the client applications on the same computer where the server applications are installed (with exception of BackupClient) or on any other computer with connection to the server applications.

 

Licensing

For the installation of the client applications no own license is needed. Only the server applications need a license.

 

Installation requirements

 

Where are the setup files located?

When installing a versiondog server system, you can select the option to create a network share, where all client setup files are stored. If this procedure was performed during the installation of your server applications, you can start the program Setup.exe using the directory on the network share.

Call the setup directory (vdog client setup) on the network share of the versiondog server using the following path:
\\[octoplantServername]\vdog client setup or \\\[IP address]\vdog client setup.

If you cannot access the client setup directory on a network share, you must ask your system administrator for a copy of the directory.

If you have a parallel server system, you will find the installation files on both servers. Which one you use, does not matter.

 

Why are some symbols not being displayed correctly?

 

We have improved support for Unicode. Older operating systems do not correctly display all Unicode symbols. To what extent Unicode symbols are supported depends on the version of Windows and the language packet installed.

 

To FAQ list

 

Is the data transfer between versiondog client and server encrypted?

 

All client server communication is encrypted by TLS1.2 or TLS1.3.

Transport Layer Security (TLS) contains software developed by the OpenSSL Project for use in the OpenSSL Toolkit. (http://www.openssl.org/).
