General

•Server name—the name of Dr.Web Server. If it is not specified, the name of the computer where Dr.Web Server software is installed is used.

•Server language—default language which is used by components and systems of Dr.Web Servers if failed to get language settings from the Dr.Web Server database. Particularly used by Dr.Web Security Control Center and administrator notification system if the database has been corrupted and the language settings cannot be obtained.

If you select an interface language whose texts are not currently being updated, you will be prompted to enable the update for this language. To do this, follow the link to the Administration → General repository configuration → Dr.Web Server → Dr.Web Security Control Center languages section, set the flag for the necessary language and click Save. At the next repository update, the interface texts for the selected language will be updated. Also you can launch the update manually in the Repository state section.

•Number of parallel requests from clients—the number of threads processing data from clients: Dr.Web Agents, Dr.Web Agent installers, neighbor Dr.Web Servers, Dr.Web Proxy Servers. This parameter affects the performance of Dr.Web Server. Do not change the default value when using the embedded database. The use of an external database may require a higher value (see Appendices, Dr.Web Server Load and Recommended Configuration Parameters). When working in an anti-virus network with a large number of client connections to Dr.Web Server, it is recommended that you consult with the Doctor Web technical support team before changing the value of the parameter.

Starting from version 10, the Authorization queue parameter cannot be edited via the Control Center.

On the new Dr.Web Server installation, this parameter takes the 50 default value. On the upgrade from the previous version saving configuration file, the authorization queue value is saved from the previous version configuration.

If you need to edit the authorization queue value, edit the following parameter value in the Dr.Web Server configuration file:

<maximum-authorization-queue size='50'/>

•In the Newbies registration mode drop-down list, select the registration mode for new stations (see New Stations Approval Policy).

▫In the Default primary group drop-down list select the group which is set as a primary when access of stations to Dr.Web Server is allowed automatically.

•Set the Reset unauthorized to newbie flag to reset parameters to access Dr.Web Server for workstations which have not passed authorization check. This option can be helpful when you change the Dr.Web Server settings (such as public key) or change the DB. In such cases workstations will not be able to connect to Dr.Web Server and will need to get the new parameters to assess Dr.Web Server.

•Set the Create station accounts automatically flag to automatically create missing station accounts in the Control Center when installing Dr.Web Agents via the group installation package. If the flag is cleared, installation is possible only according to already created accounts in the group, installation package for stations of which is launched.

•In the Allowed difference between time of Dr.Web Server and Agent field specify allowed difference between system time at Dr.Web Server and Dr.Web Agents in minutes. If the difference is larger than specified value, it will be noted in the status of the station at Dr.Web Server. 3 minutes are allowed by default. The 0 value means that checking is disabled.

•Set the Replace IP addresses flag to replace IP address with DNS names in Dr.Web Server log file.

•In the Station name drop-down list, you can set format of workstation names as they are displayed in the Control Center catalog of the anti-virus network.

•Using the Replace station name drop-down list, you can optionally set a way of replacing displayed workstation names with fully or partially qualified DNS names (if host names cannot be detected, IP addresses are displayed).

By default, the Replace IP addresses flag is cleared and station names are not replaced. If the DNS service is not set up properly, enabling these options can considerably slow down the Dr.Web Server operation. When using any of these options, it is recommended that name caching on the DNS server is enabled.

If the Replace NetBIOS names flag is set and anti-virus network contains the Proxy Server, when for all stations connected to Dr.Web Server via the Proxy Server, in Dr.Web Security Control Center, the name of computer on which the Proxy Server is installed, will be shown instead of stations names.

•Set the Synchronize stations descriptions flag to synchronize descriptions on stations (Computer description field on the System properties page in Windows OS) with station descriptions in Dr.Web Security Control Center. If no description is given to a station in Dr.Web Security Control Center, the field will be filled in with the description from the user computer. If the descriptions differ, the description in Dr.Web Security Control Center will be replaced by the description from the user computer.

•Set the Synchronize geolocation flag to enable synchronization of stations geolocation between Dr.Web Servers in multiserver anti-virus network. If the flag is set, you can configure the following parameter:

▫Startup synchronization—number of stations without geographical coordinates, information on which is requested when establishing a connection between Dr.Web Servers.

•Set the Use policies flag to allow using policies for configuring settings of protected stations (see Policies).

▫Policy versions number—maximum number of versions that can be created for each policy.

•In the Number of backups for the Dr.Web Server versions field, set the maximum number of stored backups created at update to a new revision of Dr.Web Server via the Control Center (see Updating Dr.Web Server and Restoring it from Backup). The 0 value prescribes to store all backups.

•Set the Use the Agent protocol extension to transfer file data flag, to allow the file data transfer from Dr.Web Agent to Dr.Web Server via SFTP protocol. If the flag is cleared, no data transfer is performed.

•In the Number of Lua virtual machines field, set the maximum number of preloaded Lua virtual machines for Dr.Web Server needs.

•In the Script for loading Lua virtual machine field, insert a script to execute during a background creation of Lua virtual machine for Dr.Web Server needs.
