When using Lansweeper free version -

If we have users who are part of the domain but connecting through different networks - can they be scanned.
These are laptops at various location and connected via the internet.

I also want to clarify (still a little unclear on this):
We do have some users who connect to our system but are not on the domain
Is it possible to scan their laptops (the would be non-domain/workgroup).


Appreciate the help.

Thanks
Paul

If your server can connect to them on this IP with full access you should get it to work.

Okay.
Sounds good.

No. They don't usually get a VPN connection or the like - they communicate with our system but don't connect to it. If that makes sense.

I guess the best way of clarifying that is that they will have a different IP address even though there is some communications with our server.

This works using the premium version/alternate credentials, see : http://www.lansweeper.com/kb/workgroup.aspx
