You can use the Group Chat Server Configuration Tool to modify the following settings for the Web service:
-
Settings Used by Clients
This box displays the URL that is used by clients for file transfers to and from the Web service. It is always displayed as an HTTP address. The URL should specify the host name of the computer where the Group Chat Web service is installed.
In multiserver deployments where more than one Group Chat Server is deployed to the pool, the most recently installed Group Chat Server acts as the Web service for the pool. You can change which server is currently hosting the Web service, but after making the change, all servers in the pool must be restarted. -
Settings Used by All Web Service Instances
This box displays the root directory used to store files that are uploaded to any instance of the Web service. If only one instance of the Group Chat Server is installed in the pool, you can use a local path such as C:\File Repository. If multiple instances of the Group Chat Server are installed, you must specify a shared network path, such as: \\server\share name\subfolder. To change the location of the root directory, click Browse, and then navigate to the new folder.
