The doc directory contains information on using the tools. The basic-usage.txt
file in that directory is a good place to start.
The software can be built for either 32-bit or 64-bit versions of Windows.
Binary distributions include binaries of the 32-bit and 64-bit radmind client
tools in the bin32 and bin64 directories, respectively. Source distributions
and the git repository include instructions for how to build for each platform
in a file called BUILD.txt.
While the 32-bit radmind tools will run successfully on 64-bit versions of
Windows, they may give unexpected results. 32-bit and 64-bit views of the
registry are different on 64-bit versions of Windows. In general, all of the
information in the registry is available to a 64-bit application, while only
some of the information is available to a 32-bit application. There are also
complications involving on-the-fly rewriting of values as well as name
conflicts between 32-bit keys and 64-bit keys. The 64-bit tools can manage
registry keys for both views of the registry on a 64-bit system.
A number of parts of the file system and resgistry have very restrictive
permissions. Best reults will likely be obtained by running the tools as the
SYSTEM user.
Only the client tools are ported to Windows at this time. You must use them in
conjunction with a radmind server running on another platform.
