Installing ConfigMaster on different Web servers
================================================

Configuring Netscapes Enterprise Web server / Fast Track Web server
--------------------------------------------------------------------

1.  Install the Web server.

2.  Find the servers document root directory. The default document directory
    name is "c:\Netscape\SuiteSpot\https-<server name> (for example:
    "c:\Netscape\SuiteSpot\https-lab36"). To make sure, you should look in the
    default settings for the server's Root directory.

3.  Install ConfigMaster under this root directory.

4.  Open the Web server's administration page using Start -> Programs ->
    Netscape SuiteSpot -> Administration. Another way to open the server
    administration page is to open the browser in the following address:
    "http://<server name>:<port number>", for example: "http://lab36:15713".
    Click on the button carrying your server's name (for example: lab36).

5.  Using "Programs -> CGI Directory", create a CGI directory for the same
    location you installed ConfigMaster. The Prefix for this directory must be
    the same as typed in the install program (when you related to the
    CGI alias). If it is not the same, edit "ConfigMaster.html" in the program
    directory and change the ALIAS parameter of the program to the chosen
    prefix.

6.  (Optional) Using "Content Management -> Additional Document Directories",
    create an Additional Document Directory (alias) for the program directory.
    This alias name should be different from the CGI alias prefix you used in 
    section 4, for example give the alias name "nms".

7.  To activate the applet you should open your browser at the location
    "http://<server name>/<alias name>/ConfigMaster.html", for example:
    "http://lab36/nms/ConfigMaster.html".



Configuring Microsofts IIS Web server / Personal Web server
------------------------------------------------------------

1.  Find the server's document root directory. You can see this directory on
    the main screen of the personal Web server. The default document root
    directory is "c:\InetPub\wwwroot".

2.  Install ConfigMaster under this directory. The next sections will explain
    how to configure the different Microsoft Web servers with a new virtual
    directory (and an alias) for this directory.

3.  For IIS 4.0: open the IIS Management Console ("Start -> Programs ->
    Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack -> Microsoft Internet Information Server ->
    Internet Service Manager"). In the console's root choose Internet
    Information Server. Right click on the Default Web Site and choose "New ->
    Virtual Directory". This will open a "New Virtual Directory Wizard".

    For IIS 3.0: open the Internet Service manager ("Start -> Programs ->
    Microsoft Internet Server -> Internet Service Manager". Double click on the
    WWW service of the computer. Click on the "Directories" tab. Click on the
    "Add.." button. Choose the "Virtual" option.

    For the Personal Web Server open the Personal Server Manager ("Start ->
    Programs -> Microsoft Personal Web Server -> Personal Web Manager"). Click
    on the "Advanced" button. Click on the "Add.." button.

4.  Add an alias for this directory and give it the same name you used in the
    ConfigMasters installation program (for example: "go"). When you fill in
    the access permissions allow execute for this file in addition to the read
    access and script access that are already chosen.

5.  To activate the applet, open your browser at the location
    "http://<server name>/<alias name>/ConfigMaster.html".
    For example: "http://lab36/go/ConfigMaster.html".
