Creating a Group Account for PT Administrators

After you have installed all required technologies, create a group account containing the aliases of all users who are allowed to access the PT Admin application.

To create a local group for PT Administrators

1. Log on as Administrator to the Web server on which the PT Admin application will be installed.
2. Start Windows 2000 Computer Management. To do this, click the Windows 2000 Start button, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and click Computer Management.
3. On the left pane, under the Computer Management (Local) node will be a System Tools node that is already expanded. Expand the Local Users and Groups node under this node.
4. Right-click Groups and click New Group to add the group.
5. In the resulting dialog box, type an appropriate group name (for example, "PT Administrators"). Optionally, type a description in the Description box.
6. Click Add to add new members to the group.
7. Type the user names, separated by semicolons, of each user with authority to administer the PT Admin application. The domain for each user will be added automatically and will appear in the format WebDomain\UserName in the Members field of the dialog box. Repeat this step until you have added all of the PT administrators.
8. Click Close to close the Add Users and Groups dialog box.
9. Click OK to close the New Group dialog box.
10. Close Computer Management.
