Installing under Windows

Download XBT Client Backend from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=94951&package_id=113736.
Run the executable.

There are two ways to run the client backend under Windows (NT, 2000, XP and 2003). The first way is to run the client backend manually, like every other application. The second way is to run the client backend as service. The advantage of this way is that it also runs when no user is logged in.

Open a command window (Start - Run - cmd).
Run net start "XBT Client"

Starting under Windows

Just start the executable. An empty DOS window should appear.
