Configuring the Administration Server
Configuring the Administration Server
You define the admin and admin httpd server classes in the file httpd.adm.config, and
the secure transport for administrative functions in the file httpd.adm_stl.config. Sample
configuration files are provided with the iTP Secure WebServer and edited in the
install.WS script.
If you run the install.WS script and an httpd.adm.config file is already present on the
system, the script prompts you, asking whether to replace the existing script.
Defining the admin Server Class
The admin server class has the object-code file name admin.pway and must consist of
exactly one static server process. (This restriction ensures that only one user at a time

The admin httpd server class has the object-code file name $root/bin/httpd. You can
define multiple static processes to accommodate the workload you expect, and
additional dynamic processes to handle peak workload. If you choose to modify the
sample configuration, follow these guidelines:
