Windows 7/Vista
On Windows 7 and Windows Vista, when logged in as administrator, you do not have administrator
privileges for an application by default, due to Windows User Access Control. To run an application
in administrator mode, you must right click the application icon, and select Run as an
administrator.
To workaround this issue, you can open a command prompt as an administrator by right clicking
the Command Prompt shortcut, and selecting Run as Administrator. If successful,
the command prompt title is Administrator: Windows Command Processor. You can
then install the service by running the mdce install command.
Important Note:
You can encrypt all sensitive Enterprise Gateway configuration data with an encryption
passphrase. For example, you can specify this passphrase in your Enterprise Gateway
configuration file, or on the command line when the Enterprise Gateway is starting up.
For more details on configuring this passphrase, see
Setting the
Encryption Passphrase.
