re: Ventrilo Installation / Configuration

As many of you are already aware, Ventrilo is the program of choice by Peace through Violence for voice chat communications, which is especially important during raids. Although you do not need to have a microphone, you must be able to at least listen to voice chat during raids, as much of what is required is communicated by the raid leader through Ventrilo.
Just as a side note: It is a good idea to go out and purchase a microphone, as this gives you an excellent way to chat with your fellow guild mates, and get to know everyone you are playing with. Much discussion is had over Ventrilo that is not contained in Guild Chat via the game client. Ventrilo will provide you with additional ways to seek groups, ask for help, or just relax with your fellow guild mates.
The Ventrilo Client can be downloaded from the following locations:
Windows 32 bit: http://www.ventrilo.com/dlprod.php?id=1
Windows 64 bit: http://www.ventrilo.com/dlprod.php?id=4
Mac (OSX 10.3 or Higher): http://www.ventrilo.com/dlprod.php?id=2
One you have downloaded and installed Ventrilo, you must configure the program (which is actually very straight-forward and easy).
You will need to know the server address, the port, and the password for the Ventrilo server you will be connecting to. This information can all be obtained from the Guild Information tab within WoW.
For a very detailed setup guide (created by the Ventrilo team), please refer to the following web page:
