BlueSky’s web admin interface provides you with a status report on the connections to your server and quick links for connecting to clients.

After you get BlueSky Admin Connect installed on your Mac, you will be able to use the links that appear in each record to quickly establish connections, without having to enter any information.

At each HTTPS checkin the status field is updated with the state of the SSH connection. The status shown is the status at the last communication with the server. If the date and time are older than 5 to 10 minutes, the computer is probably offline, powered down, or sleeping. If it shows as not connected, that means that HTTPS is communicating just fine, but there is something wrong with the SSH tunnel.

You can also modify the auto-assigned BlueSky ID. Remember that the ID must be unique from any other ID and must also be less than 1949.

New computer installs will back fill. In other words, if you delete the record using ID 4, then the next installed computer will begin using ID 4.
