Stickies Server is designed to be run on an 2000/XP/Vista machine as a service to serve out friends lists. This permits a central machine which can be left always running to take load from a client PC in a large Stickies installation. It can be managed using a standard Web Browser.
The setup program below will install the files required for the server, register the system service, and then start it for you. During installation you choose a number of parameters including the port on which to listen for web-based administration. Once the server is running, point your web browser at this port on the machine on which the server has been installed to view full documentation.
For example, if you choose the Default port of 81 and install to a machine called dc4, point your web browser at http://dc4:81/
You will need to run v5.2a of Stickies or above in order to correctly administer the server, but the server can hand friends lists to earlier versions of Stickies. Unfortunately, Stickies Server 2 is not compatible with the Firefox browser: IE and Opera can be used to administer it.
