# Working with the Server

The server runs the ACDC data collection service, which collects data from the controllers and saves the results on the Database module. This section explains how to operate the server, and how to modify the server configuration.

Access to the directory where ToolsNet is installed must be restricted to authorized users only. Log files located at: C:\ProgramData\Atlas Copco\Logs should be viewable exclusively by users who have permission to use ToolsNet. These log files must remain unaltered and should not be modified under any circumstances.
