Configuring Apache to accept exported capture buffers

To enable the Console Replay Export feature to work correctly, you must configure a web server to accept

the buffer data. The following is an example of configuration changes made to Apache version

2.0.59(Win32) on a server running Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003.
You must select a location to store the exported data, set Apache permissions to write to this location, and
configure authentication. To configure authentication, you must run htpasswd.exe to create the user

names and passwords for Apache to authenticate against when an access request to the export location

is received by Apache. For more information about how to configure users, see the Apache Software
Foundation (

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/auth.html

).

WebDAV provides a collaborative environment for you to edit and manage files on web servers.

Technically, DAV is an extension to the http protocol. You must make changes to the configuration file to

enable WebDAV by loading the Dynamic Shared Object support modules for it. The following two lines
must be added to the list of modules in the http.conf file: LoadModule dav_module

modules/mod_dav.so and LoadModule dav_fs_module modules/mod_dav_fs.so
You must also enable authentication by loading the LoadModule auth_module

modules/mod_auth.so, LoadModule auth_digest_module

modules/mod_auth_digest.so modules.
If a directory for the DavLock database does not exist, then you must create a directory. A DAV directory
under Apache2 is all that is necessary. This directory is referenced in the configuration file. The following
is an example of the changes to http.conf to add this support:

# Davlock database location

DavLockDb "C:/apache/Apache2/Apache2/dav/davlock"

# location of data being exported

Alias /images/ "C:/images/"

# Configuration of the directory to support PUT Method with

authentication

<Directory "C:/images">

AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
AuthType Digest

# if digest is not supported by your configuration use the following

# AuthType Basic

# location of the usernames and passwords used for authentication

AuthUserFile "C:/Program Files/apache group/Apache2/passwd/passwords"

# specifies the user that is required for authentication, can be a group

# For group change to the following after creating the appropriate group

# Require group GroupName

Require user Administrator
