Create the dc_config.txt file manually

Steps

  1. Open a text editor on the DC Agent machine.
  2. Use the following format to list each domain that DC Agent should poll, followed by its domain controllers, as shown below. The square brackets ([]) around the domain name are required. 
    [WEST_DOMAIN]
dcWEST1.forcepoint.com=on 
dcWEST2.forcepoint.com=on 
[EAST_DOMAIN]
dcEAST1.forcepoint.com=on 
dcEAST2.forcepoint.com=on
  3. Enter a carriage return after the last line in the new file.
    If this hard return is not included (creating a blank line at the end of the file), the last entry in the file gets improperly truncated, and an error message like the following appears in the websense.log file:
    WSDCagent : Error
    reading Config File: dc_config.txt
    Erroneous Entry: dcEAST2=o
  4. Save the file in the web protection bin directory (C:\Program Files\Websense\Web Security\bin, by default) with the name dc_config.txt.
  5. Use the Windows Services tool to restart the Websense DC Agent service.
