Logging On
By default, the Whois service logs on to the System Account.
To view and/or change settings for the Whois service:
- In the Control Panel, start the Services applet.
- Select IMail WHOIS Server and click Startup.
- (Optional) Select the desired Startup Type.
- Under Log On As, select the appropriate account:
- System Account. Select this if any one of your mail hosts uses the Windows NT database to register and authenticate users.
- Allow Service to Interact with Desktop. Select this to provide a desktop icon that can be used by whoever is logged in when the service is started. For more information, see your Windows documentation.
- This Account. Select this only if none of your hosts uses the Windows NT database; then enter the name of the appropriate user account; make sure the user is a Host Administrator.
| Note: If one or more of your hosts is based on an external database, the Log On As account must be an account that has access to the external database. |
