Proxy Servers
The RiskFilter System Management Console needs to connect to the Internet to operate correctly. If you
use a proxy server to access web and FTP sites on the Internet you need to tell Webmin about these
machines:
• HTTP proxy – This is the proxy server used for HTTP server requests and should be in URL format.
For example: http://hello.com:100
• FTP proxy – This is the proxy server used for ftp server requests and should be in URL format.
For example: http://hello.com:100
• No proxy for – This lists servers that you want to connect to the Internet, without using the proxy. Use
a comma, ‘,’ and a space to separate more than one server.
For example: Messagesoft.com, surfcontrol.com.
WEBMIN SERVERS INDEX
This feature is only relevent if you have several RiskFilter appliances.
The Webmin Servers Index enables you to monitor multiple RiskFilter appliances wthout you having to
remember the password for each appliance.
EXAMPLE: In a master/slave cluster configuration all of the slaves could be added to the Webmin Servers
index of the Master’s webmin console. This would allow a single point of entry for the monitoring of all the
servers within the cluster.
Adding Webmin Servers
You can add servers to the Webmin Servers Index using the Webmin Servers Index module.
To add servers:
1Select Webmin Servers Index in the Webmin.
2 In the Webmin Servers screen select Register a new server.
3 Enter your server details and click Save.
Caution: Proxy Server authentication is not supported in this release of RiskFilter.
