WebServer ReStart

[RayA]

Anyone have any idea if its possible to restart a NetTalk web server from a command issued from a server page.  Any idea ... anybody!

While I'm not 100% sure I understand what you are asking,
if you have GPF Reporter in the app (set to quietly restart on a GPF) and you sent some command to the server that specifically caused it to GPF
Peek(0,x#)
will do it
then the server will restart.

But given that I have no idea who you want it to restart, or where you are calling it from, I've no idea if this solution is appropriate. I certainly wouln't be putting it into my server.

cheers

Sure - just add Chain(Command(0)) as server side code. So you could stick this under a button or send a para to a web page to invoke this code.

Bruce,

Lets say I access my server from a remote location and I make changes to my server config and I would want to restart the server to make those changes active.  The restart would have to be only accessed from a secure admin page.

Kevin's way sounds good to me.

Thanks Bruce and Kevin ...............
