<strong>MonitorMagic</strong><br />
The option "Ask for Windows 2000/NT username and password" is not mandatory but it is<br />
re<strong>com</strong>mended that you use it. It gives you an extra layer of security. By choosing the "Ask for<br />
Windows 2000/NT username and password" option you are forcing users of the <strong>MonitorMagic</strong><br />
web interface to enter the username and password they use to logon to windows NT. Just<br />
because a user correctly enters his/her username and password doesn't mean that they will be<br />
able to use the <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> web interface. The must have read-only or manage rights which are<br />
specified in the Access rights tab, seen on the figure above. If a user logs into the <strong>MonitorMagic</strong><br />
web service and has no access rights, or their access rights are unspecified, they will not see any<br />
domains listed on the left hand side of the interface. If you do not specify this option, any user<br />
connecting will have read-only access.<br />
<strong>MonitorMagic</strong> WebService certificate configuration:<br />
Before you can use <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> over HTTPS you must configure a certificate, save it to disk,<br />
and install it on the web browser you will be accessing the web service with. Configuring and<br />
installing a certificate is not difficult. Please see the following for more information:<br />
Configure <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> WebService: Configure Certificate<br />
Configure <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> WebService: Save Certificate<br />
Port numbers:<br />
Every piece of software or hardware that uses TCP/IP (transfer control protocol/Internet protocol)<br />
connects to its' destination target via a port number. There are 65,535 TCP/IP ports and you can<br />
use a web browser to connect to the <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> web service on almost any one you desire.<br />
The two stipulations are that the <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> web service must be listening on the same port<br />
number that you're connecting to, and you can't use a port number that is in use by something<br />
else. For example SMTP email is sent over port 25 and pop3 email is received over port 110.<br />

Configure <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> WebService: Configure Certificate<br />
In order to enable access to the <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> web service over HTTPS a digital certificate must<br />
be used. The purpose of a digital certificate is to verify that a user sending a message is who he<br />
or she claims to be. Digital certificates are most often issued by a certificate authority such as<br />
VeriSign. <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> is capable of generating its' own digital certificates. You do not have to<br />
use the digital certificate that <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> generates, if you have one from a certificate authority<br />
you can use that. To tell the <strong>MonitorMagic</strong> web service what certificate it should use you must<br />
click the "configure" button under the "<strong>MonitorMagic</strong> WebService certificate configuration" section<br />
of the figure seen below:<br />
