Status files

In addition, WinRoute generates other files and directories where certain status information is

saved:

Files:

dnscache.cfg

DNS files stored in the DNS module’s cache (see chapter

8.1

).

leases.cfg

IP addresses assigned by the DHCP server.

This file keeps all information available on the Leases tab of the Configuration DHCP
server
section (refer to chapter

8.2

).

stats.cfg

Interface statistics (see chapter

20.2

) and user statistics (see chapter

20.1

) data.

vpnleases.cfg

IP addresses assigned to VPN clients (see chapter

23.2

).

Directories:

logs

The logs directory stores all WinRoute logs (see chapter

22

).

star

The star directory includes a complete database for statistics of the WinRoute web inter-

face.

Handling configuration files

We recommend that WinRoute Firewall Engine be stopped prior to any manipulation with

the configuration files (backups, recoveries, etc.)! Information contained within these files is

loaded and saved only upon starting or stopping the MailServer. All changes to the configura-

tion performed while the Engine is running are only stored in memory. All modifications done

during Engine performance will be overwritten by the configuration in the system memory

when the Engine is stopped.

25.3 Automatic user authentication using NTLM

WinRoute supports automatic user authentication by the NTLM method (authentication from

Web browsers). Users once authenticated for the domain are not asked for username and

password.

This chapter provides detailed description on conditions and configuration settings for correct

functioning of NTLM.
