Using iManager

After you have successfully installed iManager (see Installing iManager) and have been authenticated by providing a valid login/password pair (see iManager Authentication), iManager will allow you access to the directory or filename provided as the Path Specification. The iManager interface is subdivided into multiple sections, each of which is comprised of one or more "wizards".

The wizards allow you to perform specific operations on the currently selected file or in the current working directory. For example, initiate an iManager session on your server. Authenicate yourself with your virtual server administrative login/password pair. Change the Path Specification to "/usr/local/etc/httpd/htdocs/index.html" and select the "Start iManager" button. iManager will launch and you will be presented with the following sections:

    Currently Selected File
    This section is used to perform operations on the currently selected file. You can either change the currently selected file or use the textarea to make changes to the currently selected file and upload the changes to the server.
    Current Working Directory
    This section is used to perform operations on the current working directory. You can change the current working directory or perform operations on files and directories within the current working directory.
    Upload File to Current Working Directory
    This section is used to upload files on your computer to your virtual server.
    Make New Directory
    This section allows you to create a new directory in the current working directory.
    Change Password
    This section allows you to change the password for the current login name.
