1) What are the requirements of Remote Order Entry?
- To use ROE you will need the following:
- → Open account with NRF
- → A personal computer
- → Windows 98, ME, 2000, or XP (We are sorry, but Mac operating systems are not supported)
- → An active internet connection
- → An email address is optional but allows for emailing confirmations to yourself
2) How much is Remote Order Entry?
NRF does not charge anything for the use of this service. Your only cost will
be your internet connection and your computer.
3) I am getting a connection error saying:
"Incompatible Sever Version".
You will need to download and install the latest version of the
connection software.
Your current username and password will work in the new version.
4) I am getting a connection error saying:
"General Socket Error".
This is usually the result of a firewall issue on your end. In order to fix this
problem you will need to either allow a program
acuthin.exe to access the internet, or allow
TCP access for port 5632. Please contact us
if need help with this.
5) My password will not save anymore. Can we fix that?
Yes, we can!
Simply follow these steps. This will assume that you have installed Remote
Order Entry into the default directory. If you chose a different directory,
you will need to use that one.
- Open "My Computer"
- Open your C: drive. A common name for this is Local Disk C:
- Open the "Program Files" folder
- Open the folder named NRFThinClient
- Locate the file named passwd
- Right-click on the file and choose delete
- Log back into Remote Order Entry
Your password should now save properly!

10) I have more than one computer in my office or more than one store location.

They will all share the same login name and password. We do have some limitations
