Configure DC Agent to use only NetBIOS for user identification

Steps

  1. Navigate to the web protection bin directory (C:\Program Files\Websense\Web Security\bin, by default) and open the transid.ini file in a text editor.
    If the file does not exist, use a text editor to create a file called transid.ini, and add the following line to the top of the file:
    [DCAgent]
  2. Locate the or add the UseNetBIOS parameter, then set its value to True. For example:
    [DCAgent]
    UseNetBIOS=True
  3. Save and close the INI file.
  4. Use the Windows Services tool to stop the Websense DC Agent service.
  5. Remove the XidDcAgent.bak file from the bin directory.
    The file is recreated when you start DC Agent.
  6. Start the Websense DC Agent service.
