HELIOS EtherShare UB User manual

9 The EtherShare Administration server

EtherShare Admin is used to configure HELIOS servers from Mac OS 8/9 clients. However, we recommend to switch to the modern, cross-platform HELIOS Admin (see Base manual).

The EtherShare Administration server system consists of the program "admsrv". It is created automatically in the "HELIOSDIR/sbin" directory during the installation. EtherShare is configured to start "admsrv" automatically when the host is booted.

Preferences for the configuration of the EtherShare Administration server are listed in 13.7 "EtherShare Administration server preference keys".

Note: Full details on EtherShare Admin can be found in the EtherShare 2.6 manual.
