Installing the Web Interface on a Separate Machine

  1. Run the ListManager installer on the machine you want to run the web interface on.
  2. Install ListManager. The installer requests database connectivity information, but you need not provide it. Once ListManager is installed, do not run lm.exe. You only need to run httpd-lm.exe on this machine.
  3. Find the file ~tclweb/bin/tclhttpd.rc, and open it with a plain text editor.
  4. Edit the Config tclport_ip to be the TCP/IP address of your original ListManager server. Also edit the Config tclport_port if you have changed it in Utilities: Administration: Server: Server Settings: Network Settings: Ports and Config tclport_password if you have changed it inUtilities: Administration: Server: Server Settings: Advanced: For Programmers.
  5. Go to your original ListManager installation, and edit Utilities: Administration: Server: Server Settings: Security: GUI Hosts. Add the IP address of the remote web server to the IP addresses currently there.
  6. Start the ListManager Web Server on the remote machine. You should now be able to access the ListManager web interface.
  7. To make clickthroughs use the hostname you have configured for your remote server, configure it in URL to Web Interface in Utilities: Administration: Sites: Edit Site: Essentials.

You must have port 2021 open between your original Aurea List Manager installation and your Aurea List Manager web server.

TCLPORT IP addresses

By default, Aurea List Manager only listens to the loopback address (127.0.0.1). You may specify that Aurea List Manager accept connections on other IP addresses. If you need to have other servers be able to connect to ListManager for scripting, you have to specify the machine's IP address here.

You can select one or more IP addresses to connect to Aurea List Manager via TCLPORT from a remote server.
