The SRE-Filter Configurator: Simple Mode

This is the simple mode SRE-FILTER configuration utility. It provides an easy means of modifying and changing the more important SRE-FILTER's options. Experienced users may wish to use the more powerful (but less well documented) intermediate mode configurator.

Technical note:

For this configurator to work, you must have installed SRE-FILTER as your GoServe filter, and GoServe must be running. By default, SRE-Filter permits remote configuration (provided the client has SUPERUSER privileges). If you are very security conscious, you can disable remote configuration: and permit configuration only from the server (SRE-FILTER will compare the client and server IP addresses). See the SREFCONF.CMD file for details.

Please choose a parameter to modify

The currently active values will be shown, along with a moderately detailed description of what the parameter does. If you decide you do not want to modify a selected parameter -- just select the CANCEL link.
Having trouble comprehending these descriptions?
For instance, can you define request selector ? If not, we recommend reviewing the basic terminology section of the SRE-Filter manual.

Multiple Hosts

 These two host options are used only if you have a multi-host server. If you are running a single host server, you can ignore them.
  • The preceding host parameters can be set from any one of several possible hosts
  • For the remaining parameters, this simple configurator will modify parameters that apply to the host you are talking to (the host your browser is submitted this request to). If your request does not match one of the host entries (or if you have not defined any hosts), then the non-host specific (the generic) parameters will be modified.
