	<h2>Metacat Configuration Succeeded</h2>

	</p>

	<p>Congratulations!</p>

	<p>You have now successfully configured this installation of Metacat. All that

	   remains is to configure geoserver and restart the metacat servlet for the changes to take effect.

	<p class="section">Configuring Geoserver</p>

	<p>Metacat ships with <a href="http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/Home">Geoserver</a> to handle the spatial functionality.

	   Regardless of whether you plan on using the spatial functionality you should,

	   for security purposes, configure geoserver initially so that it doesn't use

	   the default password.

	   To configure geoserver with a new admin password:

	   <ol>

	    <li> Point your browser to 

	     <a href="<%= request.getScheme() + "://" +

	       request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

	              request.getContextPath() %>/geoserver.jsp"><%= request.getScheme() + "://" +

		                      request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

				                      request.getContextPath() %>/geoserver.jsp</a>. </li>

	     <li> Login using the default username and password ( <em>admin</em> / <em>geoserver</em> ) </li>

	    <li> Point your browser to 

	     <a href="<%= request.getScheme() + "://" +

	       request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

	              request.getContextPath() %>/config/loginEdit.do"><%= request.getScheme() + "://" +

		                      request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

				                      request.getContextPath() %>/config/loginEdit.do</a>, enter a new user and password then submit. </li>

	     <li> In the upper-left, click <em>Apply</em> then <em>Save</em> to save your new password.

	    </ol>

	</p>

	<p class="section">Restarting Metacat</p>

	<p>The simplest way to restart metacat is to restart the entire servlet engine.

	   For Tomcat, this would mean calling "sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 restart" or

	   an equivalent command appropriate to your operating system. After restarting,

	   you can access your new Metacat server at the URL:

	   <a href="<%= request.getScheme() + "://" + 

	       request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

	       request.getContextPath() %>"><%= request.getScheme() + "://" + 

	                request.getServerName() + ":" + request.getServerPort() +

	                request.getContextPath() %></a>

	</p>
