Issue/Introduction

 

Resolution

With the release of SEE 8.2 MP2, we are now able to run the access utility from a command line to enable scripting of this process as needed. The utility can be built into an existing .wim using the instructions found in the Utilities folder of your SEE-FD software download.

 

When running the SEEFD Access Utility from a command line, the following syntax should be used:

 

SEEFD_Access_Utility.exe -n "username" -p "password" -d "domain name" (without quotes)

 

The Domain Name field can be omitted if authenticating with a Client Administrator account, while it is possible to authenticate with an existing registered (domain or local)user account if needed.
