Chapter 3 Configuring the NewsBrowse System

Site-specific configuration tables

Create tables similar to the examples given here as required by the site’s specific
NewsBrowse system. Use conventions as described earlier in this chapter. The values
in

bold

text in these example tables are pre-defined—you should not change them as

you fill in your own site-specific table. Values with italic text are an example of the
entry you make in your own table. Cells with a “NA” have no applicable value.

In these examples the system root used for naming is “iron”. Replace “iron” with a
root name appropriate to the site.

The screen shots and other examples in the remainder of this manual use the example
names and values in these tables
