Cool Tip of the Day 26: Share Your Desktop
You
can share your desktop with others, including users who do not have the
2007 R2 version of Microsoft® Office Communicator or Communicator Web
Access sign-in name. If your administrator allows it, users without a
sign-in name can view or take control of a shared desktop.
Do one of the following:
In the Contact List or search results, right-click a contact or group name, and then click Start Sharing My Desktop
- In the Conversation window, click the Desktop Sharing button.
If this is the first time you are sharing your desktop, Click to Install to install the plug-in. (Required to continue.)
In the File Download - Security Warning window, click Run to run the installer file for the plug-in.
If
you are using Communicator Web Access on a computer running the
Microsoft® Windows® operating system and using firewall settings, you
may see a Windows Security Alert window during plug-in installation.
Click Unblock. (Required to continue.)When
the plug-in is installed, you receive a warning. In the Warning dialog
window, click Start Sharing to start sharing your desktop.Desktop sharing starts.
