4.1 The Administration Website

The Administration Website is installed during the original ASP installation. It consists of its own Apache Web server, its own ASP engine, and an ASP application (the Administration Console) that allows administration of ASP installations (called ASP Servers) on the same machine.
The Administration Website is installed to a port number selected during installation. The default is 5100. For example, if the Administration Website was installed to www.mysite.com on port 5100, then the console could be accessed with www.mysite.com:5100. The Administration Website hosts a single ASP Application called the ASP Administration Console.
The ASP Administration Console is protected by a user name and password provided during installation. A section below will explain how to add additional administrator user names (see Administrating the ASP Administration Web server). The Administration Console will only allow one user at a time to log on. A second user attempt to logon is directed to an error page. Only the first eight characters of the password are checked.
Note:
On Cobalt Server Appliances, you
can access the ASP
Administration Console from the Cobalt Server Management Console. Go to
Control Panel · ASP Administration Console Parameters
