2.3  Mac OS

Administration Console is installed along with Kerio MailServer. At the server, it is not necessary to use the installation package to install Administration Console.

Administration Console can be started from the System Preferences → Other → KMS Monitor → Administration Console.

Files location

Administration Console is installed to the /Applications/Kerio MailServer directory. Thid directory includes the Administration Console.app package. The Contents/MacOS subdirectory contains the main executable file, Administration Console, whereas the Contents/Resources subdirectory includes individual modules (mailadmin*).

Localization files (*.qm) are stored in the Contents/Resources/translations subdirectory. Help is not available on Mac OS. However, the /Applications/Kerio MailServer directory includes Kerio MailServer user's guide in PDF.

Bookmarks (login data for individual servers) are saved in the .kerio/admin subdirectory of the home directory of the current user (there is a special set of bookmarks customized for each user). Each bookmark is saved in a separate file. The file extensions correspond with the application for which the bookmark refers (currently, the only alternative available is .bkms for Kerio MailServer).

Installation of the Administration Console for remote administration

For remote administration of Kerio MailServer, only the Administration Console needs to be installed on the workstation. The installation is realized by a separate installation package (disk image) of Administration Console (its name starts with kerio-mailserver-admin).

To install Administration Console, use the wizard which is started when the image of the particular disk is opened. Administration Console can be started from the System Preferences → Other → KMS Monitor → Administration Console.
