change this to a remote machine in a network you have to start the client with an additional
parameter:
Windows
l Create a shortcut/Edit existing short cut
l Append “ --host hostnameOrIPAddress” at the end of the “Target” field. (Note: The text to
append starts with an space and there are 2 hyphens to add!)
Linux
l Append “ --host hostnameOrIPAddress” at the end of command (e.g. “java -jar client.jar -
-host 192.168.1.100” Note: The text to append starts with an space and there are 2
hyphens to add!)
