Internet access to Atrium

[cjg]

What is required to allow a customer to access Atrium to run a rpgsp program from the internet? What ports need to be opened?

[David]

To run RPGsp applications from Atrium requires that you configure the HTTP server instance for Atrium to allow for calls to the RPGsp applications. This involves setting up a ScriptAlias to enable CGI calls to your RPGsp object library, and also involves creating some other aliases or paths that can map to any IFS documents required by the applications -- i.e. your CSS, JavaScript files, images, etc.

If you are not famliar with the configuration steps necessary for this, please contact Profound Logic support -- we'll be glad to assist you.

Once this is all set up, just a single port needs to be opened to allow traffic from the Internet. The port used is up to you -- Atrium defaults to using port 480, but in a real-world production environment, you would probably change this to one of the standard ports 80 for an HTTP site, or 443 for HTTPS.
