Useful Links

Note: When on Windows 7 64-Bit, Client Access will install under Program Files (x86). When putting the files that are specified in the video in their appropriate directories, make sure they are named the same (case sensitive). Change "emulator" to EMULATOR and "private" to PRIVATE.

Once this is done. Open ZEUS.WS or any variation thereof and find the HOSTNAME parameter. It should say "ODIN.senecac.on.ca". This is not the server we are using. We are using ZEUS. Change the HOSTNAME paramater to HostName=ZEUS.senecac.on.ca.

Launch Client Access with any of the preferred .ws files and login as normal!
