Adding Alternate Documentation Servers

To enable your current server to access books located on another server (for the purpose of following links between books), select Add Alternate Server from the Admin GUI.

1. Enter the alternate server's name in the AnswerBook2 Server Name field.

2. Enter the alternate server's AnswerBook2 port number in the Server Port Number field. If you are unsure of the port number, try 8888 (the AnswerBook2 default port number).

3. Click on Add Server.

You can also use the following command to perform this function:

% /usr/lib/ab2/bin/ab2admin -o add_server -M add_server_name -P add_server_port 
[-m server_name] [-p server_port]
