Server Settings Overview

Administrators can use the options in the Server Settings tab (Tools > Server Settings) to inspect and edit settings of DiveLine server, which is the server component of the Diver Platform and Diver Solution software. The Server Settings give you centralized control of your DI users, data, and processes. Diver clients, such as Workbench, ProDiver, DivePort, and DiveTab, all connect and authenticate through the DiveLine server. In the Server Settings, you can define the DiveLine authentication type, administer users and groups, control access to project files, view details about the DiveLine activity, and configure advanced settings.

Server Settings has multiple sub-tabs and the sample screen below shows the General tab.

The options in the Server Settings apply to the current DiveLine connection, which is shown in the server Connections list. For more information, see Getting DiveLine Server Information.

NOTE: Changes made to these settings propagate to other users who have Server Settings open. If there are conflicting changes upon saving, those users are notified with a dialog box.
