Establishing a peer-to-peer connection with
Ghost.exe
If you are using an LPT, USB, or TCP peer-to-peer connection, then you must set
up the connection between your computers before a clone, backup or restore
operation.
The computers must be physically connected using one of the following:
■ LPT: A parallel connection cable
■ USB: A USB 1.1 cable
■ TCP peer-to-peer: A network connection
See “TCP/IP connections” on page 178.
In a peer-to-peer operation, one computer is designated the master computer,
and the other is designated the slave computer. This table describes the possible
Norton Ghost processes and the master/slave relationships that exist between two
computers.
Select which computer is the master (the computer from which you control the
connection), and which is the slave (the other computer participating in the
connection). All operator input must occur on the master computer.
