set during installation). To change the password for the Internet Express Administration utility,
see Chapter 7.
Note:
The Secure Web Server is initially configured to allow access to the Internet Express
Administration utility from the local system only. To allow access from remote systems, see the
Secure Web Server Administration Guide.
Table 1-2 summarizes the ports on which the administration accounts are installed by default,
and shows the URLs for accessing these accounts. In the URLs shown in Table 1-2,
host.domain.name represents the fully qualified host name of the local system (the system
on which Internet Express is installed).

You access the administration servers from an HTML-based Web browser. Enter the appropriate
URL, as shown in Table 1-2.
Note:
A user who accesses the Administration utility is granted the ability to access privileged files
and perform system management tasks until exiting from the browser. The user retains privileges
even when browsing files that are not part of Internet Express.
Do not leave an Administration session unattended. Also, limit access to the admin account to
those individuals authorized to perform Internet system management tasks.
1.3 Accessing the Internet Express Login Account
The Internet Express installation procedure creates the iass login account, which you can use
to view the names and passwords for Internet Express captive accounts you have created using
the Administration utility (Chapter 3).
The iass account receives mail when:
• You create a captive user account (named or generic).
• Statistics for the InterNetNews (INN) server are generated. (A nightly report is mailed to
the iass account.)
• The news server is down.
During installation, you can specify a forwarding address for the iass account to have this mail
sent to a more convenient e-mail address.
You can access the iass account using two methods:
• By logging in from the Tru64 UNIX command line. The password for the iass account is
set during installation.
• By using the Manage iass Account menu item from the Manage Users menu (see Section 3.11:
Managing the iass Account).
