Xpolog holds information
concerning remote protocol connections, databases, e-mails and file
system locations in entities called accounts. Each of these accounts
contains general information, such as the account's name and
description, and specific information pertaining to the specific
account type, like host address, port, user name and password in the
case of an SSH account, or the email address in the case of an
email account. These accounts are used for defining logs, as
for instance
in the
case of database
logs or ftp logs, and for various other
operations, such as exporting logs and folders and defining sql
queries on previously defined logs. each of these entities is an
entry in Xpolog's address book.
You can view the
address book by clicking the 'Address Book' entry under the 'Data
Support' top menu.
A list of all available accounts will be displayed. |
