momwin Folder Location

The location of the momwin folder depends entirely upon the setup of
your network. Each workstation, must be setup exactly the same way,
even if a workstation is also the MOM server. This becomes very
important when using the M.O.M. Auto Update feature that is covered
later in this guide.

UNC (Universal Naming Convention) Setup

This is the recommended setup. It avoids any issues with Workstations
that are not setup consistently. It uses the “Name” of the server on the
network to find it, which does not change from station to station like a
Mapped Network Drive can.

prompt you to locate the Momdata.dbc file. This is located within
the momwin folder on your network.

Network Type, and a Domain or Workgroup which is simply the
group of computers that your M.O.M. server is a member of.

5. Select momdata.dbc

Support cannot assist with network setup or navigation.

ç IMPORTANT
Warning! If you are using a mapped network drive, it is VERY
that every Workstation use the same mapped drive
letter and mapped location, consult a Windows Networking
