&lt;server-key host="dokeos.domaine.com_" key="PaSSw0rd" /&gt;

The "_" at the end of each URL really matters, don't forget it.<br />
<h4>Reloading Red5</h4>
Restart Red5 to reload the configuration file and the new application using, on Ubuntu or Debian:
<div class="code">
/etc/init.d/red5 stop
/etc/init.d/red5 start
</div>
<h4>More information on RED5 + Dokeos</h4>
Please take a look on this page : <a href="http://www.dokeos.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_videoconference_2.0">http://www.dokeos.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_videoconference_2.0</a><br /><br />
<h4>Configuration of your dokeos Videoconference plugin</h4>
The configuration of the Videoconference plugin is done via the admin pages of Dokeos
configuration in the Dokeos platform administration section, "Configure the services",
"Visio-conference"<br /><br />
You will be asked for 4 things
<ul>
<li>Edit /usr/lib/red5/conf/red5.properties</li>
<li>Edit /usr/lib/red5/conf/realm.properties and change the default administrator password.</li>
<li>the hostname or IP address of your Red5 server (e.g. red5.myserver.com)</li>
<li>the port (the default port is 1935 and we recommend you leave it like this)</li>
<li>the password (which you have configured in your red5 configuration file</li>
<li>whether you want to use rtmpt or not (useful to pass through firewalls but slower)</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h4>More informations on RED5</h4>

<h4>Configuration of your dokeos Videoconference plugin</h4>
The configuration of the VideoServing is done via the admin pages of Dokeos
configuration in Dokeos platform admin, Configure the services,
Configure Visio-conference<br />
This contains the URL to the video conferencing application.
You probably need to add something before these paths if Dokeos is not
installed into the root of your webserver.<br />
url:/main/webrooms/videoconference.html and <br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; /main/webrooms/videoconference2.html<br /><br />
<h4>Connect your Dokeos installation to RED5</h4>
You should tell Dokeos the configuration of you red5 server. This is done
using the administration page of Dokeos. In the first field below the
two url, set the public ip of your red5 server. The second field <br />
will contain the value of <i>&nbsp;rtmp.port&nbsp;</i> from you red5
configuration and the last field will contains <i>&nbsp;rtmpt.port&nbsp;</i>
value.<br /><br />
<br />
