Administration site
The Administration site on the Server Desktop is available only when you log in
under the user name admin . Besides the options on the standard Server Desktop,
there are two other options: the Administration menu and the BlueLinQ. See
Figure 35.
Accessing the Administration site
To access the Qube 3 Administration Site:
1. Enter the following URL into your browser:
http://<hostname>.<domainname>/login/
2. At the login screen that appears, enter the user name:
admin
Only this user name allows access to the Administration site. Any other user
name brings up the normal Qube 3 interface.
3. Enter the admin password.
4. If you want to establish a secure connection when you log in to the Qube 3,
click the Secure Connect check box. This establishes a Secure Sockets Layer
(SSL) connection between your browser and the Qube 3. Cobalt
recommends that you enable the secure connection so that any data sent to or
received from the Qube 3 is encrypted.
If your browser does not support SSL or has problems accessing the Qube 3,
try connecting without enabling the secure connection. Some browsers do
not handle SSL properly and the only option is not to use SSL.
