Installing Kaspersky Anti-Spam 25
• Creation of a сron task for the mailflt3 account to run automatically the
script downloading updates to the content filtration databases and the
script monitoring the filtration server activity.
Having completed the filtration server setup, install the license key and integrate
the host mail server with Kaspersky Anti-Spam.
3.3. Configuring access to the
Control Center
Upon completion of product setup, the installer runs the kas-thttpd service, which
provides local access to the Control Center. The following settings are used by
default:
• Address: http://127.0.0.1:3080/
• User name: admin
• Password: admin
Be sure to change the user name and password for access to the
Control Center after Kaspersky Anti-Spam installation. Use of default
values may pose a threat to the security of your system.
You are also advised to change the port used to connect to the Control
Center.
User name and password are preserved in the .htpasswd file of the /usr/local/ap-
mailfilter3/control/www/ Control Center directory for CGI scripts.
You can create a new user or change an existing password using the kas-
htpasswd utility included into Kaspersky Anti-Spam. At the utility start, you should
specify the path to the file containing passwords and the name of the user being
created or an existing user whose password must be modified:
# /usr/local/ap-mailfilter3/bin/kas-htpasswd /usr/local/ap-
mailfilter3/control/www/.htpasswd <user name>
After execution of the command above you will be offered to enter the password
for the specified user.
In order to create a new file where the password of the specified user will be
stored, use the –c command line option:
# /usr/local/ap-mailfilter3/bin/kas-htpasswd –c
/usr/local/ap-mailfilter3/control/www/.htpasswd <user name>
Password changes become effective immediately after modification of the
.htpasswd file.
