When you install any of the Novell* Web Services products, such as the NetWare* Enterprise Web Server, NetWare Web Manager is also installed.

NetWare Web Manager is a browser-based management tool that you use to configure and manage the following Novell Web Services:

  • NetWare Enterprise Web Server: An HTTP server used to serve up Web pages to the Internet or to an intranet.
  • NetWare News Server: A news server used to manage Internet or intranet newsgroups for discussing and sharing information.
  • NetWare Web Search Server: A search server used to build indexes for adding searching capabilities to your Internet or intranet Web sites and can index content located on file or Web servers.
  • NetWare Multimedia Server: A multimedia server used to serve up multimedia content to Web browsers.

NetWare Web Manager also allows you to manage your users and groups using a local database, LDAP, or Novell Directory Services* (NDS*), manage one or more Web services from a single Web browser, and enable or disable Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).

When you install additional Novell Internet Services, they are managed from within NetWare Web Manager.

To Access NetWare Web Manager:

  1. In your Web browser's address field, type the domain name (or IP address), followed by NetWare Web Manager's port number.

    For example, HTTPS://domainname:2200. You specified the port number during installation.
  2. Press Enter.
  3. Enter your administrator user name and password.
  4. Click OK.
