1.4 Managing QuickFinder
QuickFinder Server Manager is a browser-based utility you use to create and manage all virtual search servers and their indexes on your QuickFinder server.
Figure 1-3 QuickFinder Server Manager Interface
QuickFinder Server Manager lets you apply default (global) settings so that each time you create a virtual search server, you don't have to waste time configuring it. After you create a virtual search server, you can customize any of the default settings.
See Section 1.6, Getting Help for more information about where to get help using QuickFinder Server Manager.

Specify the name and password of a valid, local Linux user that has write rights to the /var/lib/qfsearch directory.
You can log in as root (with the root password), the eDirectory administrator (with the admin password), or the user you created during the OES install (with the user's password).
You can also give any eDirectory user rights to administer QuickFinder by using Linux User Management (LUM):

Export the eDirectory user to the Linux machine.
