  ??IPAddress??   ??Note: When this parameter is used in the

  on different computers, Cognos Cognos TM1 clients will receive
  an error when they attempt to log in to the Cognos TM1
  Server.????If the Cognos TM1 Server and Admin Server reside on
  different computers, you can configure the Admin Server to use
  multiple IP addresses for an individual Cognos TM1 Server by
  adding an initialization file named Tm1admsrv.ini to the

  correct.????What is it ???????Bug #2:????When (1.1) and (1.2)
  are correct and thus (2) is wrong, to use IPAddress both TM1
  Admin Server and TM1 Server must run on the same computer, it is
  not possible to run them on different computers.??????Bug
  #3:????When (1.1) and (1.2) are wrong and (2) is correct, the
  product documentation is lacking a sample TM1 Admin Server
  configuration file tm1admsrv.ini outlining the parameters which
  must be set to use the optional parameter IPAddress in the TM1
  server configuration file tm1s.cfg??
