To use the User and Group Manager application with a FirstClass server, you must install the User and Group Manager server software, called FirstClass Agent, on the FirstClass server. You must also configure the FirstClass server to communicate with FirstClass Agent as a FirstClass gateway. In addition, you must enable the FirstClass batch administration feature.
This appendix describes how to set up the FirstClass server to communicate with FirstClass Agent.
IMPORTANT FirstClass sends confirmation and error messages to the "Admin" user as FirstClass mail. Because of this, you should not rename the "Admin" user account. These messages are the only status information that FirstClass provides for changes requested by User and Group Manager.
To set up the FirstClass server:
Step 1
------
Using the FirstClass client software, log in to the FirstClass server as an administrator.
Step 2
------
Open the Multi-Site Setup folder that appears on the FirstClass desktop.

------
Open the Multi-Site Setup icon that appears in the folder.
Step 4
------
Make sure the checkbox labeled "Allow batch administration" is checked.
Step 5

If necessary, enter a password in the Password text box.
- You will need this password for step 16. This is also the password you will need when you open the users and groups list for the server in User and Group Manager.
