Yes. You can use the package definition files (PLock.pdf for SMS version 1.x and PLock.sms for SMS version 2.0 and later) supplied with PortsLock, located in the sms.zip file.

Yes. You can use the package definition files (PLock.pdf for SMS version 1.x and PLock.sms for SMS version 2.0 and later) supplied with PortsLock, located in the sms.zip file. Q: Can I install the PortsLock Service on the remote computer without having to physically go to it? A: Yes. PortsLock supports Remote Install. If the PortsLock Service isn’t installed on the remote system or the PortsLock version is too old, PortsLock Manager will suggest that you install the service. Select the PortsLock Service executable file (plservice.exe) and PortsLock Manager will copy it to the remote computer. The PortsLock Service executable file will be copied to the Windows system directory (e.g. c:\winnt\system32) if this service doesn’t exist on this system. If the service exists on this system but is too old, PortsLock Manager will copy the executable file to the directory of the old file and the old file will be replaced.
