On the User Information page, specify the password information for the administrator login.
You have two options:
Basic Setup:
Specify a password for the NOWS SBE Administrator. The server root
password will be the same.
Advanced Mode:
Click
Advanced Mode
. This allows you to specify a separate password
for the NOWS SBE Administrator (
sbsadmin
) and for the server admin.
IMPORTANT:
The difference between these two passwords is that the NOWS
Administrator password enables you to add, remove, or configure components on your
NOWS server from the NOWS Admin console. The server password is what you use to
configure or update your server from the console. If you do not choose to make each
password different, then the passwords are the same as the NOWS Administrator
password you have chosen. Passwords must be at least five characters long and cannot
include any special characters.
When you are at the Install Additional Components page, you can install some, all, or none of
the components. If you choose to install none of the components at this time, you can add
components from the NOWS Admin GUI later. The components have been grouped together
with similar software types for easy location, often appearing in multiple locations.
