Naming a registered user

You can register as many as 100 people and groups combined, but for best network performance you should name no more than 50.

1.Choose Control Panels from the Apple (K) menu and open the Users & Groups icon.

2. Choose New User from the File menu.

An icon labeled New User appears. Its name is selected for editing.

vIf you can’t find the New User command: Make sure the Users & Groups window is active. v

3.Type the name of a person you want to register.

Make sure you notify the person of the name you type. (Capitalization does not have to match.)

4.To register more users, repeat steps 2 and 3.

To assign passwords or to name groups of users, continue with the next two sections. If you want to start sharing immediately, go to “Selecting a User or Group to Share a Folder or Disk,” later in this chapter.
