Modifying the Polling Frequency of GFI WebMonitor to Active Directory

Overview

The default time interval that GFI WebMonitor uses to refresh the user information with Active Directory is set to 60 minutes. This article provides instructions to modify this value.

 

Process

  1. Open the Registry Editor by navigating to Start > Run. Type regedit.exe and press Enter.

  2. Go either of the below paths, depending on your machine:

    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\GFI\WebMonitor (32bit)

    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432\GFI\WebMonitor (64bit)

  3. Right-click and select New > DWORD Value.

  4. Type UserRefresh for the name.

  5. Select Decimal.

  6. Divide the desired amount of minutes by 2 and enter the result. The default value is 60 minutes (the DWORD value corresponding to this is 30), so for example, if you want to change the refresh interval to 30 minutes, you would set the DWORD value to decimal 15 (which would equal 30 minutes).

  7. Restart the GFI WebMonitor services.
