How do I assign a different port when I install the host?
You must install the host software from command line to do that.
- Download the installer.
- Create a folder in the C:/ drive, called lmi.
- Open the LogMeIn.zip file and extract it to the lmi folder.
- Open the Command Prompt by pressing the Windows Key + R, then type cmd and press enter.
- Install the host software under a different port number, as follows:
- On a 32-bit operating system:
- Type cd c:\lmi\x86 and press Enter
- Type logmein install -port xxxx and press Enter
- Substitute any number up to 65535 for xxxx
- On a 64-bit operating system:
- Type cd c:\lmi\x64 and press Enter
- Now type logmein install -port xxxx and press Enter
- Substitute any number up to 65535 for xxxx
- On a 32-bit operating system:
This starts a command line installation of the product and assigns the listener to the port used in place of the variables xxxx in the example above.
Close the command prompt window and click "Open LogMeIn" on the message that appears and follow the steps to assign the computer to your account.
