 Previous | Next
Contents

Important! There is a bug in WebTen 2.1 which causes a crash when used with the NetCloak plug-in. Please make sure you are running version 2.1.9 or greater of WebTen to avoid this problem.

The location of the "NetCloak Files" folder used by the NetCloak Plug-In depends on which version of WebTen you are using. In all cases, the folder is in the same location as the actual WebTen application:

Version "NetCloak Files" Location
1.1.1 Main WebTen folder
2.0, 2.1.9 "WebSites" folder

Installing the NetCloak Plug-In with WebTen

  1. Copy the "NetCloak Plug-In" file from the "NetCloak 3.0" folder to the "Plug-Ins" folder in the WebTen folder.
  2. Launch WebTen.
  3. Launch your web browser if it is not already running.
  4. Access your server's "Administration Server" home page (at "http://www.yourserver.com/webten_admin") via your browser.
  5. Click "Advanced".
  6. Set the "MyopicPlugInMode" setting to "Off".
  7. Click "Save Advanced Settings".

If you want to process all HTML files through NetCloak, also follow these steps:

  1. Click "Action Handlers" in the Administration Server home page.
  2. Type "CLOAK_PI" in an empty "Action" field.
  3. Type "NETCLOAK-PLUGIN" in the corresponding "Action Handler" field.
  4. Click "Save Handlers".
  5. Click "MIME Extensions".
  6. Click "Built-In Extensions".
  7. Select "CLOAK_PI" from the "Action" popup menu for the ".html" extension.
  8. Click "Save MIME Extensions".

Installing the NetCloak CGI with WebTen

  1. Copy "NetCloak.acgi" from the "NetCloak 3.0" folder to the "cgi-bin" folder in the WebTen folder.
  2. Double-click the "NetCloak.acgi" application to launch it. Starting NetCloak by double-clicking on it is not required, as the Web server will automatically start it as needed. However, starting by hand is recommended to avoid possible start-up errors (like out of memory problems).
  3. Launch WebTen.
  4. Launch your web browser if it is not already running.
  5. Access your server's "Administration Server" home page (at "http://www.yourserver.com/webten_admin") via your browser.
  6. Click "Action Handlers".
  7. In the table that appears, enter "CLOAK" in an empty cell in the first column ("Actions"), and enter "/cgi-bin/NetCloak.acgi" in the second column, "Action Handler".
  8. Click "Save Handlers".
  9. Click "MIME Extensions".
  10. In the "User-Defined MIME Extensions" table that appears, enter ".nclk" in the first column, "text/html" in the second column, and pick "CLOAK" from the popup menu in the third column.
  11. Click "Save MIME Extensions".

If you want to process all HTML files through NetCloak, also follow these steps:

  1. Click "Built-In Extensions".
  2. Select "CLOAK" from the "Action" popup menu for the ".html" extension.
  3. Click "Save MIME Extensions".
