NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     ns-admin -	Netscape Servers Administration	Server

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     ns-admin -d config-directory

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The config-directory argument tells the server the	location of the	server
     configuration files.  The ns-admin	command	should never be	invoked	from
     the shell.	 During	configuration of a Netscape server, you	must specify a
     specific port number where	your Netscape Administration server is to
     listen for	admin requests.	 A single Netscape administration server can
     manage all	Netscape servers on a host.  The default port number is	port
     81.

     Assuming you have not relocated the server	root for your administration
     server, you can activate the administration server	by executing the
     following command:

     /usr/ns-home/start-admin or /etc/init.d/ns_admin start

     Once the server is	activated, you can administer your server by running
     the Netscape Navigator with the URL for your localhost and	specifying the
     port number.  For instance, http://localhost:81/

     See the ns_httpd or ns_commerce release notes and the Netscape
     Communications or Commerce	Server Administrator's for details on how to
     configure your Netscape servers.

     To	shutdown the administration server invoke the following	command

     /usr/ns-home/stop-admin or	/etc/init.d/ns_admin stop
