Recreating Proxies After Proxy Service Is Stopped
The proxy computers are listed in the
Existing Proxies
Existing Proxies
Existing Proxies
Existing Proxies
grid of the Proxy
Administration dialog box.
When proxy service stops, either explicitly or during Windows shutdown, all proxy
computers are deleted. Therefore, you must create new proxy computers before you
start proxy recording. For information about creating a proxy computer, see Creating
a Proxy Computer
on page 6-9.
Proxy service is not automatically shut down (and therefore, proxy computers are not
deleted) if you:
þ
Exit Robot, but do not exit Windows.
þ
Log off of your NT session, but do not exit Windows.
