The Java IP server

Using the Java IP server

The Java IP server is helpful when you don't know the other user's IP address. It works kind of like ICQ, where you can connect to you favorite friend. Here's how it works:

• First thing you want to do is go online (connect to the Java server). To do so, simply select the "Go online" from the Action menu, or click on the "Go online" button on the toolbar.
• When you're online, the red light in the status bar will turn green.
• In the connection view, you can now call other users by the "Using personal information" mode. You can either type the desired user's name and email, or simply select it from the menu below. That menu contains you're bookmarks.

You can costomize the command for your own needs :

DTIMEOUT	This set the time that the server will wait when connected to an idle connection without response
DPORT	This tell the server the port to wait on
DCONNECTION	This tell BeNet Java Server the number of connections to accept in a simultanous way
