SUMMARY
This article tells how an Internet Service Provider (ISP) can set up a
chatroom where members can chat and non-members can only watch. The ISP can
also assign some members to be HOSTs.
MORE INFORMATION
- Create a chatroom.
- Click Channel Property and click Flags.
- Select the Only Authenticated Users Can Speak check box; this will set
the minimum privilege for everybody to be a spectator.
- In the Channel Property dialog box, under Account, specify a name for
the account. This can be any name, for example, MemberOnly. This entry
corresponds to the registry entry that you will use to set the
permission.
- Use User Manager For Domains to create two local groups, one for the
Chat administrator (for example, chatadmin) and another one for members
for example, chatmember).
- Assign members you want to be HOST into the chat admin local group,
chatadmin.
- Assign all members to the chat member local group, chatmember.
- Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
- Go to the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL__MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\ChatSvc
\Parameters\Accounts
- On the Edit menu, click Add Key.
- Add MemberOnly and select the MemberOnly key.
- On the Security menu, click Permission.
- Assign "chatadm" to have "full control."
- Assign "chatmember" to have "special access." The "special access"
must have the following values:
Query Value
Set Value
Create Value
Enumerate Subkeys
Notify
Read Control
This special access setting will allow members to be speakers. The "Set
Value" property is the only thing different from the "everyone" group
that is set by default.
NOTE: If you are using Membership, you should assign the two local groups
to the proper token.
The members can exist across multiple domains without any trust
relationship between domains as long as you create a duplicate user with
the same password on the domain where you create the local groups.
