btb66 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I have a notification from the windows 8.1 firewall showing the drivepool service wanting to make an inbound connection from another pc on the network. I can't think what its for, does anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 That is actually 100% expected. Specifically the service controls the "Remote Control" feature of DrivePool, which allows you to administer the pool from another PC on the network.

0 btb66 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Remote control, that sounds useful, don't know how I managed to miss that capabability, but I'll look into now as its a feature I could make use of. Thanks for explaining, I knew it would be legit, just not what for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 btb66 Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 I've got remote management of Drivepool working on both PCs now, it works well, glad I asked. Alex 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
