Socket Plugin

The Socket plugin is a very low level plugin that is needed as back end for the system to create network connections and provide the data streams to and from the remote host. 

You can configure the plugin using the following properties:
 

Property Documentation
Socket.host This property should be set to the host you want to connect to initially. The default for this property is the host of the code base URL.
Socket.port This is the port you want to connect to on the remote host. The default value is 23 (telnet) but you may use any integer value. The port for ssh is 22.
Socket.relay Use this property if you plan to use the mrelayd (see download page). It will allow applets to connect to any host!
Do not use this property if you installed relayd on your web server!
Socket.relayPort In connection with Socket.relay this can be used to specify the port on which the mrelay daemon is listening on the web server. It defaults to 31415.
