You can use the Libki client to enable Groovix server based reservations and authentication under Windows.
Security, privacy, and configuration are not handled by the Windows Libki or Groovix client.
- Create an admin user called gxadmin ( microsoft instructions )
- Create an unprivileged user called guser
- the password should not be used for any other accounts, you will need to enter it again in the next step
- the security question answers can be random and should be impossible to guess
- Download the Libki client from http://open-sense.com/downloads/windows/Libki_Client_Installer.exe
- Run the installer and click Next
