32.3  Settings allowing web administration

To make the administration via the web interface working smoothly, the following settings must be done in the Kerio Administration Console:

  1. The HTTP service or the HTTPS service (see chapter 6  Services) must be running in Kerio MailServer.

  2. In the administration console, in the Configuration → Remote Administration section, administration via the web interface must be enabled. To keep the server as safe as possible, it is also possible to allow this administration for a specific IP group only (see chapter 19.3  Setting Remote Administration).

  3. Web administration rights must be assigned to the user. To set these rights, go to the Domain Settings → User Accounts section. Access rights for web administration must be set for a specific user in the Configuration → Domain Settings → User Accounts. In the dialog where the user's parameters are defined, it is necessary to enable the User can administer aliases, users and groups for their own domain option on the Rights tab (refer to chapter 32.2  Setting access rights to the web interface).

    Note: The same right may be assigned also to an entire group of users (Domain Settings → Groups).

  4. Kerio MailServer enables limiting of number of users within a domain. Users with administration rights cannot break this limit. The limit can be set under Configuration → Domains. In the last configuration window for a domain, it is necessary to enable the User count limit option on the General tab (see chapter 7.4  Restoring deleted items).
