      a) In the opened configuration wizard, turn on the Dameware Proxy component.
      b) Pair the Dameware Proxy component with Dameware Server (on the server side).

  9. If you have Dameware Proxy on the same machine as the Dameware Server:

      b) Turn on the Dameware Server component.

Warning: If you have the remote control agent already installed on your remote machines from the Dameware 12.1 release, remove and install it manually from MRC (with Hotfix2 applied).


Uninstall the hotfix
====================
1. If you want to uninstall Hotfix 2, you need to back up files (which will be replaced during the installation process) and save them in a separate location.
	  
2. Follow the same steps described in the installation process, but instead, use your backed up files. The hotfix is then uninstalled.
