Not used it & never have, so excuse me if this isn't

what you need, but you did say you were in a rush!

In the Admin Guide for DLO 6.1:

"...
Enabling or Disabling a Desktop Computer

When a computer is disabled, the Desktop Agent remains on the desktop computer. The Desktop Agent can be used to restore files and view history, but backups are disabled and the user cannot modify Desktop Agent settings.
▼ To enable or disable a desktop computer:
1. On the DLO navigation bar, click Setup.
2. In the selection pane, click Computers.
3. In the results pane, select one or more computers to be enabled or disabled.
4. Right-click the selected computers and click Enable to enable the Desktop Agent to run on the selected computers, or click Disable to prevent the Desktop Agent from running on the selected computers.
..."

Regards Andy
