Java Desktop System Configuration Manager Release 1.1 Developer Guide

Configuration Management

The Configuration Manager (5) is a web-based administration tool that allows you to view, define, and enforce configuration settings on different levels of an organization's hierarchy, such as an organization, group or user level with a web browser. The Configuration Manager is a part of the Java Web Console (4), which provides the necessary infrastructure for all of Sun's administration tools, such as a common web-based graphical user interface (GUI) and single sign-on authentication. The Configuration Manager uses templates (6) to view, define, and enforce configuration settings in the configuration repository and to render the GUI for displaying these configuration settings.
