l Port: Select the TCP port to use. The default port is 8080, the official HTTP alternate port, so as not to interfere with
the standard HTTP port (80). To block any regular HTTPtraffic (for example if only using HTTPSconnections) the port
can be set to 0.
l Time out: Set the timeout period in seconds. The default value is 120 seconds.
l Verbose log: Select to enable to keep a verbose log. Note that a communication log is generated whether or not this
option is selected. If you use a secure connection, the log will contain extra information.
l Omit attachments as CDATAnode in the XMLenvelope:Select to remove any attachments from the actual
XMLdata file. Generally the attachments are both saved on disk and included within the XMLenvelope. This option
removes them from the envelope, but they remain accessible through their direct path. This option has no incidence on
any other option of this task.
l Enable server for SSLrequests:Check this option to enable secure data exchange over the Web. This enables the
boxes below and lets you specify your secure communication settings.
l Root certificate: Enter the name of your root certificate file (including its complete absolute path). In many
cases, the root certificate and certificate will be one and the same.
l Certificate: Enter the name of your root certificate file (including its complete absolute path).
l Key: Enter the name of your key file (including its complete absolute path).
l Password: If your key file uses a password, enter it in this box.
l Encryption protocol: Choose your cryptographic protocol (SSLor TSL).
l Disable SOAPServer:Check to disable all SOAPServer functionality.
SSL is used to accept secured, encrypted requests from web clients and requires a certificate delivered by an
approved authority. SSLcan also be called HTTPS, though that is a misnomer. For more information on SSLand how
to purchase a certificate, please see Q10694 on SSL.com.
HTTPServer Input 2 User Options
The HTTPServer Input 2 user options are used to enable serving static HTTPresources, as part of an HTTPServer workflow.
These resources are referred to within the HTMLresponse file and do not pass through a process to get served so the process
is very quick. Static resources are especially useful for additional formatting of HTMLfiles such as JS(Javascript) scripts,
CSSfiles and images, since they are not dynamic and generally shared between multiple dynamic files.
The available HTTP Server 2 user options are as follows:
l Serve HTTPresource:Check to activate static resource serving.
l Resource action name: Enter a name that will be simulated as a folder in your HTTPstructure. For exam-
ple, if you enter images in this box, you would refer to any files in this folder as href="images/file.ext" .
l Resource folder:Type it the path of the folder where your resources are located, or click the Browse button
and choose the folder in the browse dialog.
Subfolders are accepted in the structre, so if your resource folder contains a folder called faces, you could refer to a
file in this folder as href="images/faces/johnsmith.jpg".
LPD Input Preferences
LPD input preferences control certain functions of the PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools LPD Server service, which in turn has
an impact on LDP input tasks performed by PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools on a given computer. The LPD Server service
receives jobs using TCP/IP from LPD servers.
For information on the properties set in individual LDP input tasks, refer to “LPD Input Task Properties”.
The available LPD input preferences are as follows:
