To change your owner and operator passwords

1. Connect to your Palace through the Palace user software (described in Connecting 

through the standalone Palace User Software on page 16).

2. Enter owner mode using your current owner password.

3. Enter the owner 's new password with the following syntax:

  ownerpass 

newpassword

4. To change the operator password, type:

  operatorpass 

newpassword

You retain your operator status until:

You turn it off,

You disconnect from the current Palace, or

A local owner turns the operators Permission off.

NOTE   

Your operator status is not saved anywhere on the Palace site. If you want to 

use operator or owner powers next time you sign on, you will have to enter the 

password again. This is a security feature; it keeps others who use your client from 

automatically becoming operators themselves.

You retain your owner status until:

You turn operator Mode off, or

You disconnect from the current Palace.

Maintaining information for web based users

Many of your Palace users will be accessing your site from the Web, using the web 

based Palace Viewer. You can make this Viewer more accessible to users, control web 

based links to your Palace site, and provide custom avatars for these web based users.

Embedding the applet

The Palace Viewer is an applet, and can be embedded on one of your web pages. 

Applets are programs that run inside of a web page, often initiated when you click 

their link. Embedding the Palace Viewer on your web site and pointing it to your 

Palace encourages users to visit your Palace. Anybody visiting your web page can 

instantly then visit your Palace site simply by clicking on the link. They do not have 

the Palace client software installed on their machine themselves.
