Chapter 3: Preparing Your Windows Network >

3.7 Using AcuServer's Graphical User Interface for Windows

Executing acuserve in Windows automatically launches the AcuServer Control Panel (ACP), a graphical user interface (GUI) based on AcuServer's command-line requirements.

You can use the ACP to perform the same tasks that you would otherwise perform by issuing the acuserve command at the command line:

Edit an access file (add, change, or delete user security info)
Set and view current configuration settings for a running server
View, unlock, and close open files and connections
Install, start, stop, modify, or remove AcuServer services on any port
Monitor a port for status and open files

Chapter 5 describes how to perform AcuServer functions from the command line and the ACP. You can access the AcuServer documentation from the ACP by clicking Help or by pressing F1.
