I am trying to understand the setting for check_key in the dimdim.properties file but I can not find any documentation about it. Can someone please explain how to use this setting?
Thanks,
Josh
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
There is a basic authentication check in the product which allows you to specify restricted presenter email-ids or conference key who have the privilege of starting conferences.
To use this feature, you need to do the following:-
1) Edit the dimdim.properties file to change the following:-
dimdim.authenticationPolicy=NO_CHECK
to
dimdim.authenticationPolicy=CHECK_EMAIL
or
dimdim.authenticationPolicy=CHECK_KEY
(default location - C:\Program Files\Dimdim\Conference Server\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\dimdim\WEB-INF\classes\resources)
2) The file containing authorized email ids / Conferencekeys is specified in the dimdim.properties file as:-
## File cotainning the list of emails / conf keys authorized to present conferences.
##
dimdim.presenterEmailsFile=dimdimPresenters.txt
You can leave this as default.
3) Save the dimdim.properties file. Open the dimdimPresenters.txt file
The default location of this file is C:\Program Files\Dimdim\Conference Server\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\dimdim
Add the email-ids or conf-keys of the presenters in the file - one on each line.
4) Save the file and restart the conference server. Only authorized email ids / conference keys can start meetings now.
Please let me know if this helps.

No it does not help. It`s the same message, "User not authorized"
Could you please test it?

Hello,
if you are using check_key, you need to modify
##
## Key file for the check key authentication policy.
##
dimdim.keyFile=dimdimKey.txt
instead of step 2 as mentioned above.
