Server-specific Directives
These are the directives related to client-to-server connection. The only mandatory parameter is
PORT
.
PORT
Type: number
Default:8080
The client will, by default, try to connect to the host it was downloaded from, on the specified port number, i.e.
[ top ]PORT
must correspond to the value you set forServerPort
directive in yourRealChatServer.conf
file.HOST
Type: hostname or IP
Default:not set
On a multihomed system, you might want to embed the chat client into a page on a web server other that the one running your chat server. Use the
[ top ]HOST
parameter to specify where the applet should connect to. See also theExternalClientHost
server config directive.
channel
Type: text
Default:not set
This would allow you to link directly to specific chat room, other than the default one. Note that
[ top ]channel
should correspond to a validRoomName
tag in your server configuration. The room should not be password-protected.
Tip: If the room does not exist, the server will create it on-the-fly, and keep it until there are no users left.
vServer
Type: text
Default:not set
Selects which virtual server the client should connect to. [ ISP Edition ]
