I agree.  I just had someone email me privately with the same sort of
question, "How do I set up a campus server".  I was going to post, but
Byungchul has outlined it pretty well.

How about a new "Administering Sage" book added to the documentation?
Setting up a campus server, security concerns, etc., could be noted in it.


Maybe we can rename the "Installation Guide" to "Installing and
Administering Sage"?

I don't see anything wrong with just "Installation guide" myself.

Perhaps windows users expect to install it and it work immediately. Unix users will know that software often requires some configuration.

But if not, "A Guide to Installing and Configuring Sage" seems a bit less intimidating than "administering"

I must admit, I found the information on starting the server very spartan. I've run SSH servers, web servers, webMathematica severs ... but nowhere I have I found the documentation so sparse. (BTW, webMathematica was a lot more hassle to install that Sage. I've not done it recently, so perhaps WRI have improved it. But you needed to be pretty clued up to install that).

I imagine a lot of people will want to run Sage on a LAN, but not open to the world. I've built it on one of my machine at 192.168.1.15, and want to be able to access it from anywhere on the 192.168.1.x network, but not have it open to the world.
