VIP Enterprise Gateway
Release : 9.11
Resolution
When a new Validation server is created, a new directory structure is created like below:
%INSTALL_DIR%\Validation\servers\
Windows:
The name of the server is the name of the folder in which the configuration file is placed and also where the log files will end up. For the example validation server called "VPN", this directory structure is created:
C:\Program Files\Symantec\VIP_Enterprise_Gateway\Validation\servers\VPN\confadserv.conf
C:\Program Files\Symantec\VIP_Enterprise_Gateway\Validation\servers\VPN\logs\
Other files will appear from time to time.
On Windows, the 'vsauthcreateserver.exe' is called to create the Windows service. Correspondingly, 'vsauthremoveserver.exe' is called to remove this particular configuration.
When starting the server, 'vsauthstartserver' is called. 'vsauthstopserver' is also available to shut it down.
The actual executable used during running of the validation server is called 'VSValidationServer.exe'.
Linux:
The name of the server is the name of the folder in which the configuration file is placed and also where the log files will end up. For the example validation server called "VPN", this directory structure is created:
/opt/Symantec/VIP_Enterprise_Gateway/Validation/servers/VPN/conf/radserv.conf
/opt/Symantec/VIP_Enterprise_Gateway/Validation/servers/VPN\logs\
On Linux, the 'vsauthcreateserver' is called to create the Linux service. Correspondingly, 'vsauthremoveserver' is called to remove this particular configuration.
When starting the server, 'vsauthstartserver' is called. 'vsauthstopserver' is also available to shut it down.
