7.2. Wizard Mode and Advanced
Mode
There are two different ways to use the Web Administration Page,
Wizard mode or Advanced mode (
Fig. 21
).
Wizard Mode
This method is recommended for beginning administrators, or
for those who have a limited technical knowledge base.
The Wizard mode provides an easy way to create new shares
and users. This mode will guide you through a series of questions
and will help you to create your shares and users.
Click the
Wizard Mode
button to use this utility.
Advanced Mode
The Advanced mode provides you with all of the available tools:
you can create, delete and customize any share and user. You
can also change the system configuration (machine name, time,
etc.) and defrag or back up drives.
Click the
Advanced Mode
button to utilize these tools.
