The gateway daemon, dswebd, requires the dsservd daemon to be running on the same machine. To enable users to browse the directory from any web browser, you must make sure that the dsservd and dswebd daemons are running. You can check their status in the Status section of the Admin Console. The LDAP service and the Web gateway service must be shown as Running. If they are not, use the Start button to start them.
You can change the default HTTP port (1760) used by the web gateway from the Admin Console. To do so, change the HTTP port number in the Web gateway section under Services.
You can modify the behavior of the web gateway and the way it displays information by editing the following configuration files:
dswebfilter.conf
Controls how the gateway makes a search request to the directory. See the dswebfilter.conf(4) man page for details.
dswebfriendly.conf
Contains user-friendly equivalents of certain attribute values that might be used in the directory. By default, it contains mappings between the ISO country codes and the names of countries.
dsweb.help
Contains help text for the user interface to the web gateway. You can edit this file and change the help text to reflect any changes you make to the user interface.
dsweb.helpattr
Contains an explanation of the directory attributes visible through the user interface to the web gateway.
dsweb.messages
Contains the messages and screen text used in the user interface to the web gateway. You can customize the user interface by changing this file.
dswebtmpl.conf
Contains templates that control how information retrieved from the directory is displayed. If you have modified the schema, especially if you have added object classes and attributes, you must modify this file to be able to display entries that use the new object classes and attributes. See the dswebtmpl.conf(4) man page for details.
