Setting up the web server
To use web publishing, you must install and configure Internet Information Services (IIS) in Windows or enable
Apache in Mac OS. For information on how to install and configure your web server, see the documentation that is
included with your operating system.
This chapter describes additional web server settings required by FileMaker Server.
Windows IIS settings
Before installing FileMaker Server, ensure that the web server is properly configured. To access IIS online
documentation, enter
http://localhost/iisHelp in a web browser on your web server host machine.
After you have ensured that the web server is running, use the following settings with FileMaker Server.
Setting up authentication for a Windows IIS website
FileMaker Server handles the authentication for password-protected databases that are published via Custom Web
Publishing with XML or XSLT. You can choose whether you want to use IIS website authentication in addition to
FileMaker Server authentication.
