Hello,
I'm currently doing an internship in an NGO that operates a school in India. My task is to teach English, social sciences and soon computer classes. All the children never really had any contacts with computers before so I need to make sure I will have their attention when I want to show them something as they tend to be easily side tracked. This is why I wanted to use iTalc.
I downloaded the software and installed it on my computer to be the teacher and exported the key to use on the student’s laptops. After I installed the clients with the exported key, I tried to add them to a classroom and view their screen. As soon as I try, a message pops up on the client’s computer saying somebody tried to connect to this computer but did not authenticate itself properly and lists my computer’s IP address.
I checked online and it said it was probably because I didn’t use the same keys on both computers. I tried uninstalling on both, exporting directly to a usb key, copying the teacher’s public key file directly instead of the .txt file but it never seems to work.
I was wondering if there were other settings I need to adjust in order for the connection to establish itself. I made sure the firewalls let Italc pass through.
I’m usually knowledgeable with computers but I’m not an IT specialist and I have limited experience with network applications. The problem is I’m still the most capable person in the school to deploy the software.
Any help would be appreciated
