Webclient Status

It can be useful to also provide information from the webclient showing the server status and details. To do this you will need administrator privileges login to the webclient

Once Logged in Select Admin from the top right of the web browser

Please note that if you do not have access to the CatDV Server Control Panel you can still retrieve the Server details from the CatDV Desktop Client Pro and CatDV Desktop Client Pegasus editions. To do this ensure that you are connected and logged into CatDV Server, then click on Server->Server Admin Panel. This will open a pop-up window defaulting to the Server Status tab containing statistics and version information. This can be copied to the clipboard and pasted into an email that you can send to us.
