Adding a Slave Server
To add a slave server, click the Slave Administration window's Add Slave... button, specify the host
name of the slave server, specify the required port number, and click OK. This will add the slave

of the slave server. Simply type the IP address in the Hostname field when adding the slave server.
Remember that if on a local network, the local IP address of the slave server must be used.
Before you start using your master/slave setup, remember to verify that:
•
Required users have be defined on the master server as well as on each of the slave servers.
•
Outside Access has been enabled on all involved servers, and ports mapped accordingly in the
routers or firewalls used, if the slave servers are to be accessed from the internet.

server in the list and click the Delete Slave button.
