Logfile Server

[rebelldtu]

Hi
This may sound a little stupid but could you tell me how I add the Logfile Server?? Wingate 6.5.3..
I have gone to the services tab and right clicked but there is no Logfile Server listed in the list aof available services to add.
Cheers
Paul

Oh, have had 6.5.3 for a few days and it is there, works too!

What build do you have Nev?

[labull]

OK - running two 1268 builds.

On the one where I haven't deleted it - it's there.

On the one where I have deleted it - I can't find a way to add it.

The logfile server is simply a WWW Proxy with the web server configured to serve the log file directory. I can get you instructions for setting it up next time I'm near a WG server.

It's that easy? I thought there was magic involved!

Hi
Instructions for mere mortals such as myself would be much appreciated!! Will you post on board or can you email etc etc etc...

Paul - don't let the "WinGate Guru" tag fool you. It's just in deference to Nev's and my advanced age.
We don't have a clue how to make it work either. Yet.

OK - best as I can figure, here's how it's done.

Create a new WWW Proxy Server. Give it a clever name like "Logfile Server" and a Service Port like 8011.

Web Server - Default - Edit - Action - Serve Request

Server Root Directory - C:\Program Files\WinGate

Default filename - Index.htm

Check - Permit directory browsing

OK

Policies - Give what ever users the needed rights. For testing you could use Everyone Unrestriced rights and Default rights are ignored.

OK

Then you should be able to go to http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8011
