Quick Server Administration
After installation open a web browser and type the URL (of the virtual web server that was
created or chosen during installation) in the address bar (or select SurfStatsLive from the
SurfStatsLive program group on the server).
On the SurfStatsLive default web page click the Log in hyperlink to go to the Login Screen.
Type a username, password and select the user type as Server Administrator. If validated by
domain specify the username in the format Domain\UserName. If validating locally, only
specify the username.
Problems logging in? Does the user account you tried to log in with belong to the chosen group
specified in the Global Setup Application? Also the username and password are case-sensitive.
To create profile groups, profile administrators and site profiles you can use the SurfStatsLive
administrative scripts OR profile editing screen on the Profiles tab. Scripts are useful especially
when creating a large number of profile groups and profiles.
To use the scripts do the following: In the SurfStatsLive Server Administration web interface
(Profile Groups tab) click the Generate IIS Server Script link on the left, select \\Localhost
from the list of servers. You can also change the name of the script file (if required). Click the
Generate Export Script link. This will create a script file containing profile groups and profiles
based on the IIS configuration of the computer on which SurfStatsLive is installed. Examine
the file (which is created on the server running SurfStatsLive) and edit the file as required. The
following commands are normally present in the file:
AddGroup – which adds a profile group.
AddProfAdmin – which makes the specific user the profile administrator for the profile
group. Each profile group can only have one profile administrator. No need to create an
account for profile administrator anywhere else.
AddProfile – adds a profile to the specified profile group.
The text file created provides more information about the syntax of the commands.
Afterwards click the Execute IIS Script on the left, make sure the correct filename is specified
and click the Execute IIS Script link on the page to run the script. This will generate the profile
groups and profiles as required.
Click the Profiles tab to edit the profile groups and profiles just created and set up additional
parameters. You can also administer the profile groups and profiles from the Profiles tab
without using administrative scripts.
Please note: The profile administrator username and password for a profile group can be
specified when editing a profile group.
Please refer to the Server Administration help for more information.
