Hello: Your certificate and proxy configuration looks fine. The first thing to check when you have trouble connecting to a venue server is whether the time on your computer is set accurately. Ideally, it would be synched to an NTP server. You might find more information about the problem in t

You might want to take a look at what inSORS does with their venues, where the "room" can be assigned a "key" you need to unlock the door. Gavin W. Burris aka 86 wrote: > I think allowing anyone into a secure meeting until you "lock the > door" is a poor security model. No need to lock the door

The beauty of Adam's suggestion is that it's exactly what the AG team has been trying to get enough time to build. This is the kind of work we'd like to see -- but I don't believe the NCSA scheduler has been released yet for others to hack on it. The work I believe is a small amount using the exis

Hi All, Just a comment that I have based on what our users have said. This is in comparison to VRVS, which many of our users utilize. The ability to be able to set an access password on a venue would be a good thing. This is fairly weak security, but would meet many user's needs. The VRVS mode

My two cents... To bad there wasn't a way that when you go to confirm you reservation in the AG Scheduler you must enter the DN of the site you will be at to confirm your reservation. Then, 5 min or so before the meeting starts, a background process (something that can talk to the venue server an

Well, that's just it - there's a difference in how you are viewing the users. If people are participating in a conference it would be nice to just be able to simply say 'no more can join' with a click of a button. In most meetings I hold, the participants are 'trusted', i.e. they are m

It does seem to me that the current steps for making a meeting secure are clunky from the point of view of an end-user with average technical skills. If I understand correctly, they have to: 1) find out the DNs for each of the meeting participants (who may not themselves know how to do this, so

I think allowing anyone into a secure meeting until you "lock the door" is a poor security model. No need to lock the door and be worried about who you have already let in, because it is really not that user unfriendly to have an attendee list and add them to a secure room with the GUI server admi

Sounds a good idea and has the merit of a simple real-world analogue. A couple of thoughts ... Presumably anyone inside the meeting would be allowed to lock the door. Presumably the main complexity is not sorting out the mechanism for vic and rat but all shared apps; the real-world analogue of n

Something I've been asked about that's security related is about having the ability to 'lock' a room from within the venue client, akin to having a closed and locked door for a real conference room. Then, if the room were set up to encrypt the traffic and people couldn't just 'jump-in'
