tuxadm
is a common gateway interface (CGI) process used to initialize the Web GUI from a browser. As shown in the Synopsis above, this program is usable only as a location, or URL from a Web browser; it would not normally be executed from a standard command-line prompt. It uses the QUERY_STRING
environment variable to parse its argument list, as is normal for CGI programs.
tuxadm
parses its arguments and finds a Web GUI initialization file. If the TUXDIR
parameter is present, the initialization file is taken to be $TUXDIR/udataobj/webgui/webgui.ini
by default. If the INIFILE
option is present, then the value of that parameter is taken to be the full path to the initialization file. Other parameters may also be present. Any additional parameters can be used to override values in the initialization file. See the wlisten
reference page for a complete list of initialization file parameters. (Note that the ENCRYPTBITS
parameter may not be overridden by the tuxadm
process unless the override is consistent with the values allowed in the actual initialization file.)
The normal action of tuxadm
is to generate, to its standard output, HTML commands that build a Web page that launches the Web GUI applet. The general format of the Web page is controlled by the TEMPLATE
parameter of the initialization file, which contains arbitrary HTML commands, with the special string %APPLET%
on a line by itself in the place where the Web GUI applet should appear. By using other parameters from the initialization file (such as CODEBASE
, WIDTH
, HEIGHT
, and so on) a correct APPLET
tag is generated that contains all the parameters necessary to create an instance of the Web GUI.
tuxadm
generates HTML code that contains an error message if a failure occurs. Because of the way CGI programs operate, there is no reason to return an error code of any kind from tuxadm
.
