Hi

I loaded the server on to a test PC, how can i move this keeping all the settings?

I would like to get it in to a final location for more detailed testing.... however i have address books, users setup etc...

Need to know how to backup and restore (or just move the whole thing).

Many Thanks

Thanks for the update...

Hi, are there any plans to make a complete web version of the viewer software?

This would make this very close to  [censored] type format, a private hosted server version would be good (i am testing the private server version of 6.5Beta currently), ive tested a number of Apache TomCat Java application that have been nice to deploy (1 file basically and the whole web program was deployed and working (in about 3 mins)).

You already have the server part, so a web portal engine shouldn't be too hard (i wouldnt think), this would be very similar to Apaches Quacamole which is a Apache TomCat application program for the viewer (got that working in 10 mins), however the "server" part has to run on a Linux box which the remote host clients check in to and frankly was impossible to get working as i spent 9 hours with it and it never worked, mostly down to real bad (read that to mean none) documentation (which lead me to find your software).

Your input would be good...

Many Thanks

cool, thanks for the update....

I'll have a look at this, i am playing with the Private server and address books at the moment.... although i would like to nail down the agent and remote install personal builds as well.

Do you have an ETA for b3?

Many Thanks

Hi

I have shared an address book from the private server, this is working, i can create a group on the local viewer and it update the server, i can also do this on the server and it updates the viewer client.

However if i try and drag a connection to the synced address book i get the enclosed image popup, any ideas?

cool, that fixed it..... i am 90% sure this PC was never used.....

While we are testing the agent creation (to get the settings right), i assume we should always delete the above files to make the system "clean"?

I notice theirs at least one setting that didnt seem to take, ive tested this a few times now:

"settings for host > Internet ID connection settings > Advanced > Select Internet ID server"
is still set to default, we changed this to IP  v6 and used a DNS name, i assume a normal DNS name should work? (the test one is support.griffcomm.ca)

It seems to save as default only.

Many Thanks

Hi

We tried on a PC with nothing installed and nothing in the registry...

Same problem, i end up with a standard agent, NOTHING in there that we put in like a company logo, disclaimer text or anything.

Agent link below:

Many thanks

Hi

We are going to run the viewer on a PC thats never been used to create an agent and see how we get on, will report back.

If we still have issues then will post slightly more in depth steps and send you the agent (should it not come out the way its supposed to).

I believe something may have been installed on the test PC, so this will eliminate that part of a possible problem.

Will keep you posted here...

Hi

We have been testing this, and it doesnt appear to be working, we are having major issues getting a rebuilt agent.exe to be saved... below are the steps and whats going on.

Windows 7 32bit
Running server
Run viewer as administrator
Tools > MSI Configuration (selected host6.5b2en.msi)
Agent Package
Generate new internet ID was all unchecked (for now)
Show disclaimer (is this ok to have special characters such as "("?
Integrate your logo (400x100 PNG file, no transparency, do not stretch)
Title (has "(" in it)
Text (yes)
Pre-configure host settings (keep ID and password both checked)
Click finish, it asks to save a file (host6.5b2en_mod.msi), whats this for?
Click save
Settings for hosts appears..., we change a few things, it tells us it needs to restart????
It then freezes for about 5 mins.... (has not responding, the odd mouse spinning icon)
The comes up about 3 mins later with a save box for AGENT.EXE, we save it.
It says saved successfully
We close viewer and exit the icon, then run the (now saved) agent.exe which has NONE of what we just typed in it including the logo, so anything we just did does not get pushed in to this AGENT.EXE file.


Highly frustrating as i would like this to work...
