Overview

The website configuration may need to be modified from the standard configuration depending on the environment that this is used in.

Configuration

To configure the website settings:

1. Access the Servers Settings -> SERVERNAME ->  Website section.
2. Configure the settings.
   • Use Windows Authentication: This enables the website User Interface (UI) to be accessed using the current user's Active Directory Windows domain login profile. This requires each user to have their Windows Username configured against their User settings. When a user connects to the website and if they have a valid Windows login then they can access the website UI directly without needing to enter their login credentials.
   • Website URL: This is the URL that is to be used to access the server. If this field is left blank, the server hostname will be used instead.
   If the server is to be accessible over the Internet and ports have been forwarded through to the server, this needs to be set to the fully qualified domain name for the external IP address, for example https://server.domainname.com. This field is used if the system ever sends an email to a users containing a link to the server website.

    

   • Domain redirect: If this is enabled then the website will redirect/forward any visitors to the configured Website URL.
   • Default language: This sets the default language that is shown on the logon page before a user logs in. A user can then override this once they are logged in via My Settings.
   • Session timeout: This is the number of minutes before a session times out due to inactivity after which the user have to log back in to continue. When the session timer is about to expire then the user will be prompted with a warning.
     
     The session timeout has no affect when using Windows Authentication.
