Learn how to use Server Admin to enable and congure
websites with wiki tools.
You use Server Admin to enable and congure websites with wiki tools. Websites with
wiki tools have My Page, which is a portal page that allows users to create wikis, blogs,
web calendars, and mailing lists.
Setting Up Wiki Server
Here is an overview of the basic steps for setting up wiki server.
Step 1: Set up and start iCal service. To host web calendars, you must set up and
start iCal service.
Step 2: Congure web service. Web service conguration applies to all websites,
which includes all wikis. You can change the data store location, maximum attachment
size, and default wiki theme.
Step 3: Set up a website. Set up a website so it enables wikis and blogs, and possibly
a web calendar and a mailing list. You can also restrict wiki creation to a few users.
If you set up multiple websites, you can set dierent settings and permissions per
website.
Step 4: Start web service. After setting up web service and a website, start the
service.
Step 5: Create a wiki and test web service and wiki congurations. Wikis can be
created by anyone you allow. Users have access to My Page, which allows them to
create wikis and blogs. Users do not need server access or server tools.
Setting Up and Starting iCal Service on the Wiki Server
You can enable web calendars if you run iCal service on the same server that is
hosting wiki server. You can use the default iCal service settings. If you want to enable
iCal service on a dierent server, see “Setting Up iCal Service on a Dierent Server than
the Wiki Server on page 16.
