NetMeeting is set up to run by default on JACE-NPs using Embedded NT.
NetMeeting is
not set up by default on JACE-NPs running the full version of NT. To
access the desktop on this model of JACE, attach a keyboard, mouse, and monitor.
You can download the latest version of NetMeeting at
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/netmeeting/
.
Caution Be very careful when using NetMeeting to control a JACE. You must log onto
the NT desktop of the JACE with administrative privileges, which means you
can change all settings. Changes you make could have unexpected
consequences, including making the host inoperable.
