Daminion Server

Daminion Server is a powerful photo, video, document manager for the local network, which allows several users to operate it remotely. The tool allows you to activate the server-side connection and monitor its status, the assigned administrator, ports in use or the details of the computer it is installed on.

Daminion Server comes as a compressed package with two components that can be installed on a computer: the Server setup and the Client setup. The Server setup is to be installed on a computer that acts as the server for your local network. The program can configure the remote access of all the users in the network to the file management application.

The tool can be easily operated from the Administration Panel, which also displays an indicator of whether the connection is active or not. The panel can display the name of the computer, as well as the IP address, data required for establishing the connection with the Clients.

Once installed, Daminion Server acts as a Windows service and can be further configured from the Services panel. You need to make sure that all the Daminion Server service accounts feature read/write permissions to access the documents on the network.

Similarly, the folder that stored the work documents must be granted read/write access from a Daminion Server service user account. If the computers are part of a Workgroup, then you may create a user on the remote computer, where the documents are stored.

Daminion Server comes with a comprehensive documentation that can help you setup the correct file storage scheme and centralized library. The program also works with a PostgreSQL database manager, which you can modify by adding or removing user permissions. Daminion Server also allows you to set the NetCatalogs.
