If you HAVE purchased Domain Time II Server or Clients
Windows Time Agent is installed automatically when you install version 4.1 or later of Domain Time II Server or Client services, so if you have
installed or upgraded those programs there are no further steps necessary to install the Agent. However, the Agent can also be installed on its own
using either the distribution Setup program or using Domain Time II Manager.

Start the Setup Program and click the link for Expert Mode.

Start the Domain Time II Manager and connect to the machine on which you want to install Agent.

2If Windows Time II Agent was installed before Server or Client was installed, removing Server or Client will not
remove it. You must use the Uninstall icon again after removing Server or Client to remove Agent.
