You can make your help server accessible
only when logged on to the help server or enable remote access to
the help server. When you enable remote access, you can create passwords
for users to secure your help server.
About this task
There are two security options for controlling
access to help administration pages:
- Local access only: Only users who are logged on to the help server
can access the help administration pages.
- Role based security: Users can access the help administration
pages remotely.
The control for these options is managed in the Help Administration
page and stored in a
config.ini file, which is
contained within the help file. The first time you access the Help
Administration page, you must access it locally from the server that
the help is running on. If you cannot access the server locally or
do not have a browser installed on the help server, you can edit that
config.ini file
to grant remote access. You can then use the Help Administration page
remotely to grant access for specific users and passwords.
