Using the Kolab Web Administration Panel
========================================
The :ref:`figure-overview` lists object types the user that is logged in is
eligible to list -- that is, the user has at least read and search access on the
container of the type of object.
For example, a user may have access to ``ou=People`` (the container for
*Users*), but not ``cn=kolab,cn=config`` (for *Domains*).
In such a case, the user would have a *Users* page to navigate to, but not a
*Domains* page.
This list can include:
* Users
This part of the interface allows an administrator to add new users
and edit, list and search existing users. This may include Kolab users,
but also POSIX users, or even contacts.
* Groups
Groups are used for message distribution (called *distribution groups*),
can be used as POSIX groups, and could be used to assign permissions in
LDAP.
By default, group membership is not used to share information in IMAP
such as calendars or other payload. The default configuration uses roles
for IMAP group ACLs instead.
* Domains
This section allows you to control what namespaces the server will
receive email for, as well as whether that namespace is or is not a
completely separate and isolated organizational hierarchy.
* Roles
Roles are used to assign permissions to Kolab users. A role already
included in your installation is the one used for Kolab administration
(the **kolab-admin** role).
Roles can be used as IMAP group ACLs, and adjust, restrict or liberate
the use of plugins and/or settings in web services such as the Roundcube
web client, iRony (CardDAV/CalDAV), Syncroton (ActiveSync) and Chwala
(Files).
* Resources
* Shared Folders
This section allows the administration of shared folders,
* Settings
The **About** link is always there.
The Kolab Web Administration Panel and its API
==============================================
The Kolab Web Administration Panel by default uses the
:envvar:`$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]` PHP variable to find its way back to its API.
If you use your desktop browser to navigate to http://admin.example.org/, the
Web Administration Panel will seek to address its API using
http://admin.example.org/api/.
``admin.example.org`` should thus resolve to the correct IP address, from the
perspective of the Web Administration Panel server.
