Caching Proxy Help

Controlling Access to the Configuration and Administration Forms

After installation, your server has one authorized username and one password that can be used to access the Configuration and Administration forms. The username and password were entered in the Administrator ID and Password fields during installation.

For Windows systems, the username and password are stored in the file admin.pwd, which is in the directory where the Caching Proxy was installed (typically C:\Program Files\IBM\edge\cp). For UNIX systems, the administration username is defined as being a member of a group named webadmin. The webadmin group is defined in a server group file, which is located in the /server_root/protect/webadmin.group file.

Use the Add User form to control usernames, passwords, and password files, including the administration username and password.

Note that the server maintains its own lists of usernames, passwords, and group names. They are not related to UNIX system users and groups.
