Manage Security Service Settings

Security services in Directory Manager are displayed on the Security Service tab. A card for a service displays information such as its name and status.

You can manage several settings for a service, such as:

• Change the name of a service
• Start or stop a service
• Configure file logging for a service
• Delete a service

    (X represents the Directory Manager installation drive)
  • The Security service directory from the website in IIS

• For a remote IIS deployment:
