Agent Messaging

This property page specifies information specific to the Messaging Agent.

After you change settings on the Messaging page, restart the Messaging Agent to put the new settings into effect.

Messaging Queue Path
Browse to and select the directory where the Messaging Agent stores conversations that need to be archived if it cannot transfer them immediately to the Archive Agent. The default location is /var/opt/novell/messenger/ma/queue.

Enable Client Download Through a Browser
Select this option if you want users to be able to download the Messenger client from the Messenger download page:

http:\\Messenger_server_address:agent_port

where Messenger_server_address is the IP address or DNS hostname of the server where the Messaging Agent is running and agent_port is the Messaging Agent client/server port.

By selecting this option, you also enable AutoUpdate, so that the Messenger client prompts users to update whenever new client software is available. If this setting is deselected, AutoUpdate cannot occur.

This option can also be set on the Client Update page of the Messenger system object.
