Frequently Asked
Questions!
Can I put
the login page on my own website?
YES!
The easiest way to place the login page for your room on any website
is using an IFRAME tag. This HTML tag is intended to place one web
page within another web page and is support-ed by all modern
browsers.
Following is a complete example web page
that includes an Web Meet Live room login page (substitute the
actual login page for your room):
<html> <head><title>My Login
Page</title></head> <body topmargin=0
leftmargin=0> <iframe width=100% height=100%
src="http://YourName.inetcommunicator.net/"> </iframe> </body> </html>
Why do I get a
Version Mismatch error when I try to log
in?
You probably need to update
your voice client installation. This can happen if you launch from a
saved shortcut. Visit the room login page to receive the latest
version, and/or clear Java's application cache.
Recorded
Presentations: Do I need Java? Where do I get it?
Java 1.3 or later is required for the
playback of recorded presentations.
In addition to having Java installed, the
Java Plugin must be enabled in the browser where you attempt to play
the recording. This is the default configuration when the latest
version of Java is installed.
Windows users experiencing problems
playing recorded presentations should update to the latest version
of Java by visiting Java.com. Once there,
click on "Download Java"
Mac OS X users already have the correct
version of Java pre-installed.
How do I prevent
unwanted logins to my room?
Rooms are initially
configured with a guest account, also called a * (any user) account,
that allows logins to your room under any name, with no password.
For most customers, this setting is very effective and represents
the fastest way to get up and running.
However, if the login address for your
room is published on a website, and attracts unwanted visitors, then
security on your room must be strengthened. At minimum, you should
assign a password to your guest account and give that password only
to invited guests. The highest (and recommended) level of security
is to remove all * (any user) accounts, and to create individual
user names and passwords for each guest.
The Automatic Registration feature,
available in your room control panel, was designed to makes this
process simple and easy by allowing the room owner to approve or
decline each registration request. For more information, see the
Room Control
Panel user's
guide.

- Windows: Internet Explorer
(recommended)

What is a JNLP
file and why are they on my desktop?
JNLP is a helper file used by Java
Web Start, the Java application launcher. When you log into a room
using the Java version on Mac OS X, this helper file is downloaded
by your browser. The JNLP files are saved according to your browser
configuration for where it places downloads. By default, Safari on
Mac OS X saves to the desktop. You may modify your browser
configuration to place these files anywhere that you
like.
Once login has been completed, the file
launch.jnlp may be deleted from your computer. Alternately, you may
leave the launch.jnlp file on your desktop and double-click it to
re-enter the room at a later time. Note that changes to the room's
configuration may invalidate your launch.jnlp file. To receive an
updated launch.jnlp file, simply enter the room normally via the
room's login page, and an updated launch file will be
downloaded.
Where is the
Installation Program?
On supported platforms,
installation is automatic through the Java Web Start mechanism.
Provided that you have the required Java support, there is no
separate installation file to download. Java comes pre-installed on
the Mac. Windows users can download java
here.
During login,
the application said "Unable to
Connect"
Various problems related to firewalls and
proxy servers can interfere with the login process, and most are
easily remedied.
Most connection errors display an error
code. Code 86 indicates that the room owner has banned you from the
conference room. In this case, do not contact support, as we will be
unable to assist you. You must contact the
conference room owner to gain access to their conference
room.
Most other error codes are related to
network connectivity issues.Consult your network administrator and
have a look at our Network
Troubleshooting Guide for more
information on network connectivity issues. |
