Creating Remote Servers
Remote
servers group together web services that are
installed on the same computer
and require the same type of authentication. With a remote server,
you enter the
base URL and authentication settings just once for multiple web services,
and, if
you need to move the web services, you just need to change the remote
server settings.
To create a remote server you must have the following rights
and privileges:
- Access Administration activity right
- Create Remote Server activity right
- At least Edit access to the parent folder (the folder that will
store the remote server)
- Click Administration.
- Open the folder in which you want to store the remote server.
- In the Create Object drop-down list,
click Remote Server.
The Remote Server Editor opens.
- On the Main Settings page, complete
the following tasks:
- Click the Properties and Names page
and complete the following tasks:
The default security for this remote server is based on the
security of the parent folder. You can change the security when you
save this remote server (on the Security tab
page in the Save As dialog box), or by editing this remote server
(on the Security page of the Remote Server
Editor).
