Here are some other notes from Support that I've saved....
- You have to be using some port > 8000. Port 80 is root-only.
- You have to add permissions thusly:
chown root /usr/OV/web/httpd/NetViewWebServer
chmod u+s /usr/OV/web/httpd/NetViewWebServer
- If you have other applications, like Optivity or Ciscoworks installed,
the chmod_web_ovw can fail due to the large number of symbols.
To correct that problem, change lines 42 and 43 of the script:
Line 42: change "cd images/symbols" to "cd images
Line 43: change "chmod a+rw *" to "chmod -R a+rw symbols"
Then run "chmod_web_ovw -a" again (-a to enable non-root users
to start the gui, "-d" to disable this).
- You need to enable Netview Security, and use the logins defined
there when launching the web client (make sure those users have
authority to run the web client!)
Cordially,

I start the read/write map with the netview command,
there is a line of code in this executable file:
/usr/OV/web/httpd/NetViewWebServer 2>/dev/null
>/dev/null&
This is what starts your web server, be sure it has
the correct permissions and that the line is not
commented out.
