texte = >I have looked in my WebCat manuel and it has no appendix that I can find.Try http://www.smithmicro.com/WebDNAReference/ The same information is available on your local machine, but since you're not hooked up to the internet I can't give you a URL that leads you there.>This is my very first server. Do I need a software like Timbuktu to >control my server remotely?There are different 'levels' of control. Certainly you can control WebCatalog's preferences remotely, but MacOS things like adding/removing System extensions, rebooting, installing new software, etc. will be possible if you get Timbuktu. Timbuktu is *always* recommended for machines that are not physically local to you.>Will I need to have WebCat installed on my computer at home to work with >it on the server it lives on? I thought it only went on the server.No, that is not necessary. Sometimes it's handy to have it local for testing just because it's sometimes faster than a slow modem connection for debugging, creating/modifying files, etc. Sometimes I use FTP to download a whole site, work locally, then re-upload everything. Other times I just use BBEdit's cool ftp feature to work on files remotely one-at-a-time.>Will the Appletalk cord connection thing not work?AppleTalk is fine. You can set up a local intranet consisting of your two computers (you'd have to use the TCP/IP control panel to switch to AppleTalk(MacIP) to get this to work). This setup will get your 2 machines connected to each other (a miniature internet), but neither will be talking to the 'real' internet via modem or anything else. I have no idea if the WebTen ip stack can handle AppleTalk or not, so I'd start with normal OT for now.Technical Support | ==== eCommerce and Beyond ==== Pacific Coast Software | WebCatalog, WebMerchant, 11770 Bernardo Plaza Court | SiteEdit Pro, PhotoMaster, San Diego, CA 92128 | Typhoon 619/675-1106 Fax: 619/675-0372 | http://www.smithmicro.com/ Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
