Try the following:

• To serve as the meeting host, your computer must be

attached to the eBeam Hardware. See Hosting/Sharing
a Meeting
.

• If you are attempting to share a meeting, make sure that

you have the eBeam Hardware connected. See
Hosting/Sharing a Meeting.

• If your network/Internet connection is behind a firewall or

proxy server, you will have to set up the proxy server.
See Proxy Server Setup.

• If you are attempting to share a meeting, make sure that

you have the eBeam Hardware connected. See
Hosting/Sharing a Meeting.

• If your network/Internet connection is behind a firewall or

proxy server, you will have to set up the proxy server.
See Proxy Server Setup.

Even if you think you aren’t behind a proxy server/firewall, you
might be. Your ISP might have a firewall set up, causing this
problem. Try:

• Add a new server (see Adding a Meeting Server) with

a DNS: meetings.e-beam.com, and port: 443.

• This option is only available in version 2.1 and later.

Newer versions of the software automatically attempt to
connect through port 443, but it may be necessary to
manually set up the server as described previously.

• When the meeting host shares the meeting through the

Share Meeting dialog box (see Hosting/Sharing a
Meeting
), they can select whether or not to publish the
meeting name. if the meeting name is published, then it
will show up in the Join Meeting dialog box. if the meet
ing name is not published, then other meeting partici
pants must manually type the meeting name into the
meeting name text box.

• To publish the meeting name, make sure that the

Publish meeting name check box in the Share
Meeting
dialog box is checked.

• Does your intranet have a proxy server/firewall? Most

intranets do. If you have not done so, enable your proxy
server. See Proxy Server Setup.

• See Proxy Server Setup.
