Creating a New User Account
You can create a new user account here on the Central Axis admin web page or in your
Central Axis desktop application. For instructions on how to add a user account from the
desktop application, see the Maxtor Central Axis User Guide for Windows or the Maxtor
Central Axis User Guide for Macintosh.
Note: When you create a new user account on the admin web page rather than in the Macintosh
or Windows desktop application, a shared folder is not automatically created for the new
account. You must create the folder yourself. For instructions on how to do this, see the
Shared Folder Management section.
Note: When the Macintosh and Windows desktop applications refer to a user account, what is
actually being referred to is a shared folder. So when you select a user account to
connect to from the list displayed in the desktop application, you’re actually selecting from
a list of shared folders, not from a list of user accounts.
You can add as many user accounts as you like to your Central Axis and control how much
access each user has to the information stored on the Central Axis.
To create a new user account,
Step 1. Click Account Management in the Main Menu or click the Account Management
icon at the top of the Central Axis admin web page.
The Account Management page opens:
