4.8.3. Configuring a Remote DataHub Instance
You can configure a DataHub instance from a remote computer with the Remote Config program. A special program, the Skkynet Web Application Manager, that comes with the DataHub program, helps you securely manage the process. Once you have prepared a remote DataHub instance, you can download the Web Application Manager from it, and web launch the Remote Config app, as follows:
Ensure that the DataHub instance you want to access is running, and that its Web Server feature is enabled.
Open a web browser and type in the IP address or network name for the DataHub computer. If the Web Server feature on that DataHub instance is configured to use a port other than the default port
80, include that port number in the network address. For example, if the remote DataHub instance is at192.168.3.12and its Web Server is configured to use port8080, then the network address would be192.168.3.12:8080.
This opens the launch page.
Click the button and follow the instructions to download and install the Skkynet Web Application Manager. Now you are ready to launch an application.
