Enabling Secure Login
Logging into the SyncServer securely (open an https session with port 443) helps protect
sensitive information when the user is performing sensitive tasks, such as creating new user-
names and passwords, or viewing and transferring MD5 authentication keys or autokey cer-
tificates.
To enable secure login:
1. Log in to the web interface (using a normal http connection).
2.
On the SYSTEM - General page, enter a unique hostname. This is required to differentiate
the SyncServer from other SyncServers on the network.
3.
On the SERVICES - HTTP page, select one of the options that includes Secure (port 443).
4.
Fill out the Certificate Info and click the APPLY button. This restarts the web server.
To view the Login page again, you may need to prefix the URL in your browser with https if
you selected the Secure (Port 443) Only option on the SERVICES - HTTP page.
To log in securely, select the Secure checkbox on the Login page.
Recovering a Password
Enable Recover Password when setting up the SyncServer so it is available when needed.
This can be done using the ADMIN - Users or WIZARD-1st Setup pages
To recover a lost or forgotten password:
1.
Enter the username, select the Recover Password checkbox, and click the LOGIN button.
