4 In the dialog box, enter the NT networking computer names for the systems on
which alerts should be received. For example: ICB189-85, ICB189-14.
Note: Do not specify the IP address of the system. You must specify the NT
networking computer name. If another person is responsible for LAN
administration, consider making this a joint activity.
To set up the receiving machines
1 On each system which received alerts, start the Messenger service. Refer to steps
1–3 in the first procedure above.
To receive alerts on systems in a different domain (from the IP trunk system that is
generating the alerts) you must use LMHOST services
1 In Windows NT, go to the c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc subdirectory.
2 Locate the lmhosts.sam file.
3 Edit this file. Add an entry (row) at the end of the file for each system that will
receive alerts from this IP trunk application. Each entry (row) contains the IP
address and NT networking computer name of the receiving system, separated by
a tab character. Each entry (row) must be followed by a hard return.
Your entries might look like this:
Every machine on which alerts should be received must have an entry (row) in this
file.
Save the file and copy it to lmhosts (without any extension).
Note: Most text editors, such a NotePad, automatically add an extension to the
file name when it is saved. You must save the file without an extension,
or rename it to lmhosts with no file extension.
