Reports of items captured and quarantined by WinGate's optional data scanning plugins.
Administration
(Click here for a screenshot example)
- To administer WinGate with GateKeeper, you must be logged in, therefore the Administrator entry in the activity window is you.
- Your network computer name is listed, and branches below are your username and (in brackets) your security status.
Below that is the session you have open with WinGate. The session is a WinGate Login session.
GateKeeper uses this session for communicating with WinGate. The text to the right shows what command was executed last by that session.
- Right-click on your name on the activity panel to get a menu.
(Click here to read about the Action menu in the Activity Screen)
- You will notice in the screenshot below that the Administrator’s last action was to register for everything, this means logging in.
- Sessions in the activity pane are displayed dynamically, as they occur. Therefore, when they stop, they will disappear from the screen.
Clicking on the History Tab (or from the History shortcut in the View menu on the tool bar) will display all WinGate sessions that have occurred during the current logon. View the log files if you want more details on the sessions that have terminated.
