The Remote Console Applet User Interface
The Remote Console Applet contains six buttons across its top which enable you to access five general categories of settings as well as online help. The settings available are:
- Admin Preferences
- Servlet Settings

When you click a particular button, the left-hand pane of the Remote Console Applet displays a tree containing various expandable branches. Each branch is a general category and contains within itself settings (nodes) which you can access by clicking the + symbol adjacent the branch name. When you select a node within a branch, the controls for that node are displayed in the right-hand pane of the Remote Console Applet.
