Hi Barbara,
Before I get to your questions, how did you learn about RealTime? Were you
at the NTEN conference in Philladelphia?

Great!

The "domain_not_set.invalid" is the problem. I'll have to see if I can
duplicate this. This is probably because you are on a standalone machine.
What output do you get if you type ipconfig at a DOS prompt?

Both stand-alone and on a LAN should work fine. I'm guessing a stand-alone
machine install will need the Microsoft Loopback adapter installed.

No, I tested primarily on Windows XP. It's something to do with a
difference in our network settings.

Yes. RealTime just needs to be installed on one computer, then all the
others point to it with a browser. But the central serving computer does
not need to be really strong--in fact, probably any computer bought in the
last three years would be enough for a small office.
Hope this helps ...

Mark
