There are other capabilities of Control Application with users, mailbox, configuration and help tabs
The users tab can tell you more about all the users who are logged into the Tango Server
  • Their handle (login name), name of their client machine, status message, and time they last changed status
Each user is responsible for setting status message
On next page, we show the result of double clicking on a given user.
  • Up pops more information!
You can ping the user -- send a message to see the user machine is still alive.
If the ping works, try a hail which tries the wake the user up so he or she can collaborate with you.
