You may modify port and url information, so you don’t have to change the port your apache server is running on, if you are hosting other applications already: [SiteScope] ;ExtensionDll=SiteScopeMonExt.dll MetricDataURL=SiteScope/cgi/go.exe/SiteScope?page=topaz MetricListURL=SiteScope/cgi/go.exe/SiteScope?page=topaz&operation=config DefaultPort=8888 DlgTitle=SiteScope Monitor RefreshMetricList=1 EnableAccount=1 Keep in mind, you will need to modify this on each controller, however, you could write a shell script to replace the contents of this file once you visit the site, or automate something of the sort.... Good work koops :) Alternatively, instead of building your own directory tree “cgi/go.exe” etc, you could modify this file:
