Connecting to the Power Server with NetMeeting 9/2002

Now you are ready to configure the POWERLOGIC System applications

as described in the next section, Connecting to the Power Server with

NetMeeting.

CONNECTING TO THE POWER SERVER

WITH NETMEETING

To perform this procedure, you can either connect remotely from a networked

PC as illustrated in Figure 5–2, or you can connect directly from your PC to

the Power Server using a crossover cable (not supplied). See Appendix C—

Using a Crossover Cable to Configure the Power Server on page 33 for

details on crossover cable connections.

After connecting the cables, you will use NetMeeting to take control of the

Power Server from your PC so that you can configure the POWERLOGIC

System application. NetMeeting is provided with the FULL installation of

Internet Explorer 5.5 and with the Windows 2000 operating system. If

needed, NetMeeting can be downloaded from the Microsoft.com website.

NOTE: For Windows XP users, Windows XP does not provide any shortcut

to NetMeeting. You can access it by searching for the file “conf.exe” or

launch it by typing conf.exe in the Run dialog.
