. . . Making a computer available for ILS connections

Specify the address to be published and when it will be pub-
lished—for example, whenever you are using LapLink on
the Internet.
Use the LapLink Internet directory to publish your address;
the directory is available without cost to LapLink users, and
you don’t have to sign up to use it.
Publishing your Internet address does not open your com-
puter to unwanted connections. LapLink users who know
your published address can connect; others cannot, even if
they are using NetMeeting or other programs that rely on
Internet directories.
NOTE Only the host computer requires publishing; the
guest computer does not.
To set up LapLink to have your computer’s address
published on the Internet:
1 On the Options menu, click Internet Directory Options.
2 In the Internet Address box, type your e-mail address or
another unique identifier.
This will be your Internet address. Give it (as well as log-
in name and password) to any LapLink user you allow to
connect to your computer on the Internet.
3 Set options to determine how to publish your Internet
address:
• To publish the address yourself, without a confirma-
tion dialog box, clear this box: When Manually Pub-
lishing My Address, Show Confirmation.
• To have LapLink publish your address for you, check
this box: Automatically Publish My Address When
I’m Connected.
4 Set the Internet directory to publish your computer’s
address like this: Use a LapLink Directory Server:
ils.laplink.com
5 Click OK.
TIP In addition to publishing a computer’s Internet
address, you must also change its security setup before
other computers can connect over the Internet. For more
information, see
”Protecting your security settings with a
password .
Publishing your Internet address
You can set up LapLink to publish your address automati-
cally whenever you run LapLink on the Internet (step 3,
above). Or you can publish it yourself.
To publish your Internet address yourself:
1 Connect to the Internet as usual.
2 On the Connect menu, click Publish My Internet Address.
