Procedures To create a new user (Windows 2000 and XP): 1 From the Start menu, select Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management. 2 In the Computer Management dialog, go to System Tools > Local Users and Groups > Users. 3 In the right-hand pane, right click in a blank area and choose New User to display the New User dialog. If the New User option is unavailable, you don't have the required administrative privileges. 4 In the New User dialog, do the following: ■ Enter a user name for the new account in the Username text box. This can be any name, but it should be the same across all network rendering machines. ■ Enter a password for the new account in the Password and Confirm Password boxes. Like the user name, this password needs to be the same for all rendering servers. ■ Turn off "User Must Change Password At Next Logon" and turn on "Password Never Expires". This will bypass errors when you assign this special user account to the rendering service. ■ Click Create to create the new user and password. When the network is part of a domain it is a good idea to have your network administrator create a special user account on the domain. This user account would have read/write access to the network servers where maps, xrefs and frames are stored. ■ Click Close. 5 Do not close Administrative Tools. To assign a user to a rendering service (Windows 2000 and XP): Do the following on every computer used as a rendering server: 1 Make sure each server system is set up with the Network Rendering Server on page 6516 running as a service. 2 From the Administrative Tools windows, choose Services to display the Services dialog.
