Issue

Our users are having difficulty downloading the ActiveX component required to launch a PASSPORT Web to Host session.  Where can I find the MSI client install so that I can manually deploy it to their workstation?

Solution

The PASSPORT Web to Host ActiveX client normally gets downloaded and installed through Internet Explorer. However, if your company's security policy does not allow this, the MSI client install can be found at the following locations:

  1. On the server where PASSPORT Web to Host is installed at C:\Program Files\PASSPORT eClient Admin\Eclient\. Locate the W2HClientInstall.exe file and extract/unzip to obtain the W2hclieninstall.msi file.
  2. You can also download the W2HClientInstall.exe from the Client web site at http://yourservername/pec (or comparable site name)

To perform an automatic install:

 

msiexec.exe /qb /i "<path>\W2HClientInstall.msi"

 

To perform a silent install:

msiexec.exe /qn /i "<path>\W2HClientInstall.msi"

 

Running W2HClientInstall.msi will install the following files in C:\Program Files\PASSPORT Web to Host Client:

 

passhll16.dll

pass3179.dll

pass3270.dll

pass5250.dll
