The Alert
Post-A-Board Web Server
The Alert
Post-A-Board Message Board System operates from its own Web Server
that accepts Browser connection requests on Port 2057 rather than the
default Web Port, which is Port 80. Alert Post-A-Board thusly runs
alongside your normal Web Server without any configuration changes
being necessary to that server.
The Post-A-Board
Server's "Web Root Folder" is in a subfolder off of the
folder where you installed Post-A-Board. The name of the Web Root
folder is "\boardweb".
The Server Interface:
The Alert
Post-A-Board Server is shown below:

Server Functions:
Post-A-Board Administration:
The URL to your Web-based Post-A-Board Administration is displayed
here, you can copy it to paste elsewhere, or click the
"Open" button next to it to have Administration opened in
your default browser.
Active Message Boards:
This is a drop-down list box that contains the Titles of all message
board currently active on your Server. You can select a board and
click "Open" to go directly to that board's Management page
in your default browser.
Activity Log:
This window displays the various requests the server receives in log format.
Administration
Menu Options:
Settings:
Displays the Admin settings dialog that contains the Administator
information needed to run Post-A-Board.
Configuration Wizard:
Runs the Configuration Wizard for changing settings.
Log Accesses To File:
Enables logging of all accesses to a log file. The Log File will be
saved in the "\boardweb\logs" folder in standard Web log
format. Remember that if this option is turned on log files grow very
fast. Use it only if you are trying to identify a problem.
Minimize On Startup:
When checked this option will cause the Post-A-Board Server to
minimize itself after it initializes.
Other Notes:
We strongly advise
against modifying the Post-A-Board Web page templates directly. Any
modifications will be lost when an update is installed.
Do not
create subfolders in the "\boardweb" Root Folder!
