Templates And Web Parts<br />

This section of the Manage Security And Additional Settings page is analogous to the<br />

Site Collection Galleries discussed in Chapter 16. The difference is that this section<br />

pertains to Web Parts <strong>and</strong> templates installed <strong>and</strong> available from the portal level<br />

down instead of only a SharePoint Services site’s Web Parts <strong>and</strong> templates, which<br />

have a per-virtual-server focus. The administrator can add <strong>and</strong> remove Web Parts<br />

<strong>and</strong> upload <strong>and</strong> manage site templates to the portal site. The advantage of uploading<br />

Web Parts <strong>and</strong> templates to the portal site is that they become available to all<br />

portal site users regardless of which server they are hosted on.<br />

Note One thing to remember, however, is that the administrator will still be<br />

responsible for installing Web Parts (<strong>and</strong> setting the Web Part security) on<br />

each front-end server. There is no “replication” of Web Parts that occurs.<br />

which are threaded discussions that allow users to collaborate on HTML documents<br />

or on any document that can be opened with a browser (such as .htm, .xls, .doc, <strong>and</strong><br />

.ppt files) on a server running Windows SharePoint Services. Anyone with discussion
