[AG-TECH] starting venue server

[Dave Semeraro]

Ivan,

Thanks, I used the url you suggested and it worked. I had also done some 
experimenting
before you sent the mail and found some stuff out myself. I started the 
venue server from
a command line and it told me that it had started at 
"https://zim.ncsa.uiuc.edu:8000/VenueServer" so I put that url into my 
client and it connected. I
also fired up the venue manager and connected to that url. I added another 
venue, or at least
I thought I did. When I fired up the client again I didnt see any "little 
doors" leading to the
new venue I created. Do I have to whack the server and start it again?

Dave
