[funambol-users] Remote access to Funambol Administration

[Olivier <oza...@my...>]

Hi,

I searched this list archives to find how to remote access to Funambol
server administration module.

I could read this :
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.sync4j.user/4803/match=remote+access+administration

but this information is a bit general for me : I'm not familiar with either
Funambol or Tomcat ...

My question is :
1. Can I open locally a web browser and use a remote Funambol Administration
module ?
2. Which URL shall I use for that ?

Regards

Hi Oliver,
the admin tool is not a web application but a standard java application 
distributed in the bundle. During login, you can fill in the form with 
the server host name.

Thanks Stephano,

I'm a bit ashamed to ask but I'm not sure I got your advice.

I understood Funambol Admin is a Java application.
I installed it (along Funambol) on a server on which I don't have any
X-Window system.

Do you mean that I should install Funambol Admin on the client PC from which
I'll manage my server or is there command line options which would allow me
to avoid installing any software in my client PC ?

Cheers

If your client computer runs on Linux, you can just "ssh -Y" into your 
server and then start the Java application, which will then appear on 
your client's X display. With Windows, an option would be to download 
Cygwin/X (http://www.cygwin.com/) to your client computer. Inside 
Cygwin, do a "startx" to start the X server, then use "ssh -Y" like you 
would on Linux. Note however that X can be slow over Internet or VPN 
connections.
