To add a new user perform the following steps:
- Type in the full name of the user in the FULL
NAME field. Note: The full name must be unique to any other user on your system.
- Click on the tab button and this will fill in
the USER NAME field automatically. We suggest you keep the default username the software
generates for the new user.
- Type in the users password and confirm it in the
next field. Passwords are case sensitive so please remember exactly what is typed in.
- Leave the max allowed disk space alone. It has
been set for you. Only change it if you wish to make it smaller than the default.
- Site Administrator: Only check this on if you
want the new user to be able to access your <ROOT WEB> and the main admin you are in
now. Be careful who you give access to in this area.
- Enable FrontPage User Web: This will create a
personal web in your domain for that user. It will show up as ~username on the LIST WEBS
function in FrontPage. (Please note that if you are adding other people to access the
<ROOT WEB> that selecting the FP user web box is not required.)
- Suspend User: Use this on an existing user to
disable their account if required.
- CLICK on the CONFIRM button to complete the NEW
CREATION or MODIFY (depending on what you are doing)
- The process is now complete.
At this time if you are creating a new user
the following has happenend:
- The new user was created
- The users e-mail accounts have been created with
the username and one alias reflecting their FULL NAME eg firstname.lastname@domainname.com
- Admin and/or FrontPage access has been given to
the user if it was selected.
You can now provide access instructions to
your new user.
E-MAIL ALIAS NAMES AND VACATION E-MAIL
Since a user can have only one unique name
applied to them what do you do if you want to create differenet/common e-mail identities
for that user? YOU CREATE AN E-MAIL ALIAS. This allows you to use an e-mail address like webmaster@domainname.com for a user. Since each
user on your domain must follow a first name/ last name convention this is the only way
you can change your e-mail address to common beginnings like, webmaster, info, sales,
postmaster, etc. If you have more than one user in a domain you can only have one
webmaster applied to one user. Two different users in the same domain cannot both be
webmaster.
After you have created the new user go back
to the main USER MANAGEMENT screen and click on the ajacent to the user you want to modify. This will bring up the
following screen:
