Launching Migrating Desktop:
There are two different ways of launching Migrating Desktop: using Java Web Start or Web Browser. We strongly recommend to use Java Web Start
Java Web Start:Requirements: Java WebStart 1.4.2 or newer
Possible problems with Java WebStart while loading Migrating Desktop:- If you see "Security Warning" - use START button
- If you see next warning similar to "failed to verify certificate" do not use CLOSE button - use window upper right "x" button
Web browser:Requirements: web browser with enabled Java Plugin 1.4 or newer
Keep the Java Plugin cache (JAR cache) disabled!
In Windows: Start-> Settings -> Control Panel -> Java Plug-In -> Cache
You can find proper RAS addresses as well as port numbers on our main page
If everything goes wrong, please report bugs to PSNC team: cgrid at man dot poznan dot pl :)

Acquiring credentials:
Create user's certificate using:
> grid-cert-request
and follow the instructions. To sign certificate contact your country CA: Certification Authorities used for CrossGrid Testbed Sites
Please make sure your certificate becomes signed by the proper CA for your country!
-
Firewall policy:
Open port 8080 for HTTP or 8443 for HTTPS connection
If you want to transfer files you should open the pool: 13000-17000 (If it is not possible please always use tunneled connection in Migrating Desktop) and port 2811 in both directions between your local workstation and remote SE(s)
