Chapter 3: Managing Sun Chili!Soft ASP

This chapter provides detailed information about managing Sun Chili!Soft ASP, including information about changing configuration settings, enhancing security, and optimizing server performance. It describes how to use the Sun Chili!Soft ASP Administration Console, which provides browser-based access to Sun Chili!Soft ASP configuration settings. For advanced users, "Advanced Administration Options" describes how to manage Sun Chili!Soft ASP by editing configuration files directly or by using provided scripts. However, because you can create serious problems with your system in this manner, it is strongly recommended that you use the Administration Console for configuration tasks whenever possible.

Note

The Sun Chili!Soft ASP Administration Console is not available with Sun Chili!Soft ASP for Windows. On Windows systems, regedit32 can be used to edit some of the Sun Chili!Soft ASP configuration settings. For more information, see "Editing the Windows Registry" in this chapter.
