   Installing more FsClients

If you want more FsClients, each connected FsClient will need:
An IP address of its own, and a port number of its own.

IP address: This is found automatically on each PC where a client runs. 
FsClient port: This value has to be set individually for each FsClient. You can leave it alone with the first FsClient you install, for the port value of the first FsClient is the same as in FsXPand.
You add 1 to the port value of the second FsClient, and so on. If FsXpand is configured using port 9000, FsClient #1 will have 9000, but FsClient #2 will need 9001 etc.

It is possible to install more clients on the same PC. This is the procedure for installing multiple clients:

- Install FsClient
- Run FsClient to get the IP address it is on
- Add another IP address to the same network adapter of which FsClient just found the IP address (in Windows network connection properties, TCP/IP protocol)
- Duplicate your FsClient installation in another folder (copy)
- Configure your second FsClient with port 9001, and type the IP address you have added to your adapter.
At the bottom of the main window, type a name to identify each particular FsClient.
