Winpop Action

Use this dialog to configure a Winpop Action.

Description. Enter a short description of the action. This is displayed in the Action Library along with the entry in Name.
Destination. Specify the Windows NT host or domain that you want to receive this notification.
Message. Enter a text message using percent variables if needed.
Refresh. Click this button to refresh the Destination list. This populates the list with all of the targets you can choose in which to send a winpop action.

Note: Windows Alerter and Messenger services must be running for Winpop actions to work. If the Messenger service is stopped, the 'The message alias could not be found on the network' warning appears.

Tip: To check the status of an action, or to cancel an action, or group of actions, on the console go to Tools > Running Actions.

Important: Winpop is not supported on Windows Vista, this causes WinPop Actions to fail on devices running Vista.
