A.1.3 Linux - Manually Configuring an Apache HTTP Web Server
In order for the Spheras Storage Director Client to interact with the Spheras Storage Director Server, an HTTP server
must be installed on a minimum of one server. To configure an Apache HTTP Web Server, follow these steps:
Using a text editor open the following Apache file, the path may vary according to where your Apache software was
installed.
/usr/local/apache/conf/http.conf
Locate the section that discusses defining aliases:
#
# Aliases: Add here as many aliases as you need (with no limit). The format is
# Alias fakename realname
#
# Note that if you include a trailing / on fakename then the server will
# require it to be present in the URL. So “/icons” isn’t aliased in this
# example, only “/icons/”. If the fakename is slash-terminated, then the
# realname must also be slash terminated, and if the fakename omits the
# trailing slash, the realname must also omit it.
