How to Host Online Help on Your Own Server
==========================================
Basics
------
The online help for different ePages 6 versions is centrally hosted on
http://helpcenter.epages.com/Doc/[version]/epages/Help
For example:
http://helpcenter.epages.com/Doc/ver_6_10_4/epages/Help/de/MBO/index.htm
The link is generically created based on the attribute "DocRoot" in the
file "System.xml" in the Presentation cartridge:
If you want to host the online help on your own help server or locally on
your ePages installation server, you just have to change the attribute
value accordingly.
An Example for the local installation:
