# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space. Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on
# individual lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
# For example:
# 102.54.94.97
rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost

• The ETV Portal Server and the NVR must be in the same time zone. Also, in order to
record successfully, the system time on ETV Portal server and the NVR must be
synchronized. You can synchronize the machines, for example, by running the Service
for Windows Time on both machines. See "Synchronizing the Portal Server and the
NVR" in the Portal Server Admin Guide.
• In order to record multiple streams, the Recorder path must be under FTP root. For
example, if root is
C:\Inetpub\ftproot the Recorder path must be
C:\Inetpub\ftproot\<your_folder>
• If you try to uninstall the Microsoft .NET 1.1 framework prior to uninstalling the
Network Video Recorder, the uninstall of the Microsoft .NET 1.1 framework will fail
because the Network Video Recorder uses this framework. If you need to uninstall the
Microsoft .NET 1.1 Framework, you first need to uninstall the Network Video Recorder
software.
• The default FTP path in IIS is automatically set via the installer, but, depending on the
particular machine's configuration, it may need to be changed. The installer sets the
default FTP path to
D:\Inetpub\ftproot
in IIS, if a D: drive is detected. Otherwise it sets
the path to
C:\Inetpub\ftproot
. If you have a machine with an E: drive and you want to
set the FTP path to E:, you need to do two things. First, go to IIS and use the right
mouse button to select on the
Default FTP Site
, select Properties from the popup menu.
The Default FTP Site Properties dialog box will appear. Select the
Home Directory
tab. In
the Local Path edit box, change the value to
E:\Inetpub\ftproot
and hit
OK
. Second, you
need to go to the
Admin Console > Global Settings > Global Assignments
and change
Select FTP root path
to
E:\inetpub\ftproot
and then change
Select a media storage path
to
E:\inetpub\ftproot\MCS\Record
.
