Appendix D, Server Extensions for Microsoft FrontPage 493
Installing FrontPage Server Extensions
Installing the Server Extensions on each FrontPage web may take several
minutes and may increase the CPU load on your computer. If this is a new
installation of the FrontPage Server Extensions, each page’s contents are parsed
to expand FrontPage components, such as Include components and
Substitution components, create a hyperlink map of the FrontPage web, and
extract page titles and base URLs.
The installation process also updates the text indices and recalculate the links in
the Web, adds a FrontPage administration account, password, and IP address
restriction, and reminds the web administrator to restart the server if new
ObjectType directives were added to the
obj.conf
file.
During installation, the install shell modifies or adds the following files and
directories:
• Modifies
magnus.conf
• Creates a configuration file named
/usr/local/frontpage/
<hostname:port.cnf
• Modifies the server’s configuration file (
obj.conf
)to add ObjectType
directives, marking three of the
/_vti_
directories as containing
executables.
• Adds seven subdirectories under the server’s document root:
/_vti_bin (contains shtml.exe)
/_vti_bin/_vti_adm (contains admin.exe)
/_vti_bin/_vti_aut (contains author.exe)
/_vti_cnf
/_vti_pvt
/_private
/_vti_log
/_vti_txt
/images
Creates .
nsconfig
files in the
/_vti_bin
,
/_vti_adm
,
/_vti_aut
and the
document root directories.
