Connecting to a Remote Server
To connect to a remote server complete the following steps:
- First ensure that the password server is running on the IMail server machine.
- From IMail Administrator's File menu, select Connect. The remote connection dialog appears.
- Enter the IP Address of the host that you wish to connect to. This must be the IP Address of the remote host, not the computer name.
- IMail Server stores the IP Addresses that you enter so that on subsequent connections, you can select an address from the drop down list box.
- Enter your IMail Server username and password, and click OK.
The IMail Administrator interface for your local server is replaced by the interface for the remote server. Note that you cannot have two IMail Administrator sessions open at the same time. Therefore, be aware that connecting to a remote server will terminate IMail Administrator's session with the currently loaded server. However, if you do connect to another server, you can always connect back later.
