1.2.2. Configuration directives reference

Server-specific Directives

These are the directives related to client-to-server connection. The only mandatory parameters are PORT and vServer.

• PORT
• channel
• vServer

PORT

Type: number
Default: 8088

The client will, by default, try to connect to the host it was downloaded from, on the specified port number. JTAN uses port 8088 for all RealChat connections.

channel

Type: text
Default: not set

This would allow you to link directly to specific chat room, other than the default one. Note that channel should correspond to a valid RoomName 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: your_vserver_label

Selects which virtual server the client should connect to. This should be set to the vServer label you chose in the Members Area. This parameter MUST be set in your RealChatClient.conf file or in your applet code. Without it, you cannot login to your vServer. We have setup your RealChatClient.conf file to automatically include this line.
