5.1.1 Restricting access

Users of the popstore must be able to supply the correct name and password for a popstore account. You may impose further restrictions through the use of an HTTP_ACCESS mapping table. For instance, you can deny access to the user interfaces from all external IP addresses. See the description of the HTTP_ACCESS mapping table in the PMDF System Manager's Guide for directions on how to use the HTTP_ACCESS mapping table.

5.1.2 Location of the user interface

The GIF, HTML, and formatting files which comprise the web-based management interface are located in the /pmdf/www/popstore/ directory tree on UNIX and NT systems, and the PMDF_ROOT:[WWW.POPSTORE] directory on OpenVMS systems. Sites wishing to customize the interface or develop their own interface may use these files as a starting point. However, do not make changes to the supplied files themselves: any changes will be lost when you upgrade PMDF. Instead, make copies of the files and access them via the appropriate URL; e.g.,
http://host:7633/popstore_user/x-main-page.html 
Details on developing your own formatting files are given in Section 5.2 .
