Chapter 8: <strong>ChemOffice</strong> WebServer<br />

About <strong>ChemOffice</strong><br />

WebServer<br />

<strong>ChemOffice</strong> WebServer is a World Wide Web (web)<br />

chemical information server. Through a web<br />

browser, you can use the <strong>ChemOffice</strong> WebServer<br />

web applications to search databases for chemical<br />

and biological information.<br />

<strong>ChemOffice</strong> WebServer is the basis for<br />

<strong>CambridgeSoft</strong>’s enterprise applications.<br />

Installation and<br />

Administration<br />

Installation instructions, configuration options, and<br />

other administration tips can be found in the<br />

Admin guide for the <strong>ChemOffice</strong> Webserver and<br />

each of its applications.<br />

Please see the application’s readme file and<br />

Administrator’s Guide (if applicable) for more<br />

information.<br />

Global Login and<br />

Security<br />

The <strong>ChemOffice</strong> WebServer uses a global login<br />

interface to manage user information for most<br />

applications (Sample not included). After logging in<br />

once with your user name and password, users have<br />

access to all WebServer applications that they have<br />

permissions to, without having to login to each<br />

application separately.<br />

After logging in, a cookie is written to the client<br />

machine, holding login information. The cookie<br />

expires after 25 minutes of inactivity. Therefore,<br />

login information is recognized even after a<br />

browser is closed.<br />
