[Koha] Koha Digest, Vol 116, Issue 4

Thu Jun 4 09:32:07 NZST 2015

Dear all,

We have a KOHA version 3.8 installation in a special library located in
Nigeria.

The original installation was offline. The installation server now has a
live IP and now real time online.

When we logged in to the server online using the IP address, the OPAC is
available but the Admin Login page is not available.

We need to carry out online cataloguing and other admin functions remotely,
what can we do.

Thanking you in advance for helpful tips.

Regards,
Benedict.
