MDaemon Remote Administration

Remote Administration is disabled

Choose this option to disable Remote Administration. You can also toggle Remote Administration active/inactive from the File menu, or from the Servers section of the Stats frame on the main MDaemon GUI.

Remote Administration runs using built-in web server

Choose this option to run Remote Administration using MDaemon's built-in web server. You can also toggle Remote Administration active/inactive from the File menu, or from the Servers section of the Stats frame on the main MDaemon GUI.

Remote Administration runs using external web server (IIS, Apache, etc)

Choose this option when you wish to run Remote Administration under Internet Information Server (IIS) or some other web server instead of MDaemon's built-in server. This prevents certain GUI elements from being accessed which might otherwise cause conflicts with your alternate server.

For more information, see Running Remote Administration under IIS.

Remote Administration server uses TCP port

This is the port on which Remote Administration will listen for connections from your web browser. The default port is 1000.

Sessions expire after xx inactive minutes

When you are logged in to Remote Administration, this is the amount of time that your session is allowed to be inactive before Remote Administration will close it. The default is 15 minutes.

Use cookies to remember logon name and other properties

Click this option if you want Remote Administration to store your logon name and certain other properties in a cookie on your local computer. Using this feature gives you a more customized login experience but requires that they have support for cookies enabled in your browser.

Require IP persistence throughout remote administration session

As an added security measure you can click this checkbox to cause Remote Administration to restrict each session to the IP address from which you connected when the session began. Thus, no one can "steal" the session since IP persistence is required. This configuration is more secure but could cause problems if you are using a proxy server or Internet connection that dynamically assigns and changes IP addresses.

Stop Remote Administration when MDaemon stops

Click this option if you want Remote Administration to be shut down whenever MDaemon is shut down. Otherwise, Remote Administration will continue to run in the background.

Remote Administration URL

This is the URL that WorldClient will use internally when users click the Advanced Settings link to edit their account settings via Remote Administration. If you are running Remote Administration with the built-in web server, then leave this field blank. If you are using an alternate web server such as IIS, and you have configured Remote Administration to run at an alternate URL or IP address, then specify that URL here.

Bind Remote Administration's web server to these IPs only

If you wish to restrict the remote administration server to only certain IP addresses, specify those addresses here separated by commas. If you leave this field blank then Remote Administration will monitor all IP Addresses that you have designated for your Domains.

Restart Remote Administration (required when port or IIS value changes)

Click this button if you wish to restart the remote administration server. Note: when changing the port setting you must restart Remote Administration in order for the new setting to be recognized.

Edit Mailing List Admins

Click this button if you wish to open the mailing list administrators file to view or edit it.
