Using the Configurator
You will find the BrightAuthorConfigurator.exe file in the .zip archive that you
downloaded:
1. Extract BrightAuthorConfigurator.exe file from the .zip archive.
2. Open the file. You will see a window containing several fields.
3. Select the target BSNEE version. This value defaults to the latest BSNEE version.
4. If you used standard domain names for BSNEE services during the BSNEE
installation process, you should perform Basic Configuration:
a. BrightAuthor Installer Path: Locate and select the BrightAuthor installer
executable file you wish to configure. Alternatively, you can locate the
BrightAuthor installer in Windows Explorer and drag it into the configurator file.
b. Basic Configuration: Enter the Base Domain Name that was used in the
BSNEE installer. The domain names of BSNEE nodes will be generated
automatically using the base domain name.
Note: The Basic Configuration field is only enabled if a supported BrightAuthor
installer file has been supplied.
