Edit a Server

You can edit Web Server Settings only if you're connected to a web server. If you are connected to a different server, the options are disabled.

Note:

Innovative configures a WWW server for most libraries during setup. You need to find and edit the existing server only if there are updates. If you need help configuring a WWW server, contact Innovative.

To edit a WWW server

  1. Sign in to Polaris System Administration (web-based).

  2. From the Home screen, select Servers.

    Polaris System Administration (web-based) opens the Servers page.

  3. To specify the location of the Polaris Application server, enter the following:

    • Network name of application server (MTS) — name of the computer on which the Polaris Application Server software is installed. The server name cannot contain any spaces.

    • NT Domain that application server resides in — Microsoft Windows NT domain where the Polaris Application server is located. The domain name cannot contain any spaces.

    • Server IP of Application Server (MTS) — internet protocol address of the Polaris Application server.

  4. To specify the network account used by the PAC software to access Polaris, enter or select the following:

    • NT Password used with SVRAPPLICATIONNTACCOUNT — password used by the public access computers to access Polaris.

    • NT User account for access to MTS — user name used by the public access computers to access Polaris.

    • PAC Default Organization for session — organization to which all public access computers connect if an organization is not otherwise specified.

  5. In SSL: Enable: PowerPAC, select Yes to encrypt patron log-on data (use https:) for Polaris PowerPAC.

  6. In SSL: Enable: Mobile PAC, select Yes to encrypt the Mobile PAC site.

  7. (Optional) If your system includes Polaris ContentXChange or Carousel Toolkit, enter the URL of the ContentXChange/Carousel Toolkit root and specify the URL of the server where ContentXChange or the Carousel Toolkit is installed:

    http://<servername>/ContentXChange/

    The location is typically your PAC server, and if so, you can copy the servername portion of the URL from the entry in URL of the PowerPAC’s root.

  8. (Optional) If your system includes Mobile PAC, enter the URL of the Mobile PAC's root.
