Starting and Stopping the Administration Web Server

An administration Web server is installed with Sun ONE Active Server Pages, and hosts the Sun ONE ASP Administration Console. By default, the administration Web server is configured to start when the computer running Sun ONE ASP is started. Although you can start and stop the ASP Server by using the Administration Console (as described in Stopping and Restarting the ASP Server (Admin Console)), to start or stop the administration Web server, you must use the command-line utility, admtool, which is installed with Sun ONE ASP.

Telnet or log in to the computer running Sun ONE ASP as root.

Change directories (cd) to the root installation directory (/opt/casp by default).

Start the admtool utility with the following command:

./admtool

When you start the admtool utility, the following list of options displays:

1 (Start admin server) Starts the administration Web server.

2 (Stop admin server) Stops the administration Web server.

3 (Admin server status) Indicates whether the administration Web server is running or stopped.

4 (Add a user) Adds a new administrator username and password or changes the password for an existing username.

5 (Remove a user) Removes a username.

6 (List users) Shows a list of all usernames currently configured for the Administration Console.

7 (Quit) Saves any changes and exits the admtool utility.
