Overview

When the remote computer has limited or no internet connection, it is still possible to connect using the DRE proxy. If you run the DRE agent installer, it will automatically detect if the machine has no internet connection because it cannot register to the DRE server. See Use the Dameware Remote Everywhere Proxy.

Some administrators want to preconfigure the DRE proxy agent settings to the remote computer, which is possible via the Windows command line.
