Webservers
You can set up Webservers using the Webservers application. The application is listed under the "System" group of the WebHare menu:
The button bar contains the most often used actions. All actions can also be found in the menu on the far right of the button bar:
The main screen offers an overview of existing webservers. Three types of server are supported:
| WebHare backend interface server: usually one of these is configured. This webserver provides the webserver for the WebHare interface, allowing users to log on and run applications |
| WebHare output server. This webserver type provides an output webserver, usually to publish a website. |
| Access rules only - no published content. This can be used for redirecting visitors to another location. |
Every severtype supports aliases. There are two types of aliases:
| Alternative hostname: the address will not be changed when the visitor uses this. |
| Redirect: the visitor will be redirected to the main hostname. |
