    I installed and set up Wildcat under Computer ID "A", when I went into production I changed the name of the server to "B". I changed all the modem setting to "B" server name. But now if I attempt to use the wcStart with
    the /run parm it is looking for a "A" server modems. I can start wcOnline from programs with it going after the right named server ("B"). I have tried to redo the wcStart (with Server and wcOnline added underneath) but again still looks for Server "A" modems.
    Any suggestions?

    If I understand you,

    Manually run wcSTART from the START menu, and edit the WCSERVER entry properties for the computer name location.

    I attempted this but wcServer was looking for "B" when it was actually local. I cancelled the connection (as it was not looking like it was going anyway) and I reverted properties of wcServer back to "on this computer" (the greyed out computername was left at "B" and now wcStart is working fine.
