Local host name

The name of the server Monitor is running on.

Admin user name

Protects the Monitor from being used by all users except the one specified here.
If you enter a user name in this field and that user’s password in the “Admin
password” and “Admin password again” fields, Monitor runs in a protected
mode. When you restart Monitor, it displays a login page instead of the typical
first page.

Admin password

If you entered an administrator name, enter the administrator account’s pass-
word here.

Admin password again

Repeat the administrator password here.

The second set of options affects the configuration file. Make sure each
option has the appropriate setting as described below:

Primary WebObjects.conf path

The location of the public configuration file. Most of the time, this should be set
to NeXT_ROOT

/NextLibrary/WOAdaptors/Configuration

. (You only need to change this if you

move the configuration file.)

Additional public paths

If you have more than one server and each server has its own public configura-
tion file, click the Add Path button and specify the location of the other configu-
ration file(s). Servers can share the configuration file in
NeXT_ROOT

/NextLibrary/WOAdaptors/Configuration

, so usually this setting is not necessary.

Dedicated Monitor WebObjects.conf path

The location of a configuration file used only by Monitor. This file is used only if
you want to start multiple instances of Monitor, which is rare. See “Starting Up
Multiple Monitor Instances.”

The third set of options displays default setting for each application that
you’ll add to the Monitor. Make sure each option has the appropriate
setting as described below:
