Hi Thomas:

To clarify, suppose the CN in the certificate is set to West Suhanic but the
user ID that I am
logged in as is wsuhanic. I have received authorization failures when trying
to connect to a VenueServer
via a VenueClient with the CN=West Suhanic but the login ID set to wsuhanic.
The only remedy was to
set the CN to wsuhanic .

Can you please tell me where I can find the VenueServer config file.
