Restoring the Administration Web Server Configuration

Sun Internet Administrator uses an instance of Sun WebServer to support its web-based user interface. This web server is referred to as the administration web server (AWS). You can, reconfigure the AWS to suit your requirements, for example to use SSL for security reasons.

Refer to the Sun WebServer online help to reconfigure the AWS. In particular, see httpd.conf(4) and the Sun WebServer on line help for configuring SSL. The web server instance that is the AWS is called "aws" in the Sun WebServer user interface.

To ensure that you do not lose the default configuration, this section discusses the location of the default AWS configuration files and the method to restore the default settings.

Backups of the AWS default configuration files are located in /etc/opt/SUNWixamc/awsconf/default/*. The files in use are at /var/opt/SUNWixamc/awsconf. To restore the default settings:

cp /etc/opt/SUNWixamc/awsconf/default/*.* /var/opt/SUNWixamc/awsconf/.

Ensure that adm has read and write access to all files.

For the effective functioning of Sun Internet Administrator, do not change the default settings in aws.conf, site.conf, map.conf, realms.conf, and access.acl.
