List of prerequisites for installing RBackup:

(*) The prerequisites for installing the RBS Server are: Your target computer must be running a Windows operating system with a web browser and be able to browse the Internet.

(*) Our installer will install Windows Internet Information Server (IIS) to run your Server's Web Console - the portal that you log into to manage your Server and your Endpoints. It will use port 80 by default. If you already have a web server on port 80, please tell us now so we can make plans to work around it.

(*) Your firewall and router must be configured as follows:

Ports 80, 2772, 2773, and 2774 mapped to your Server, TCP inbound unsolicited traffic

Ports 29001 through 29100 mapped to your Server, TCP inbound solicited traffic

(*)  Typically, turn OFF the Windows firewall. At least allow the above ports through it.

E-Commerce Only:

(*) SSL Certificate installed (if desired)

(*) Credit Card Merchant Account Activated, if you will accept credit cards

(*) Payment Gateway configured and set up (authorize.net or Payflow Pro), if you will accept credit cards

(*) PayPal Business Account set up for Express Checkout, if you will use PayPal

The RBS Server comes by default with a built-in database that is adequate for up to 50 endpoints. If you want to service more endpoints, we recommend you install MS SQL Server.

(*) SQL Server 2005 or Higher

(*) SQL Management Studio
