4. Press OK. A directory will be created for the new user under the Root
Directory.
Note: The maximum number of users is governed by the Network Encoder
adapter key (dongle). When the maximum number has been reached, no
further accounts may be added. Currently, an adapter key for the Network
Encoder permits 99 users maximum.
Note: User names that include spaces will prevent those users from
accessing their files via FTP.

The Root Directory is also the storage place for encoding log files. Every time a
user completes an encoding job, a log file with details and outcome of the job
is generated in their folder. A copy is also kept in the Root Directory so that
the Manager has an audit record of all encodings, even if a user deletes their
own copy.
2.5. Configuring email notification (optional)
If you want, you can configure the Network Encoder to send email notification to
users when each of their encoding jobs is submitted and done.
Note: You will need to have access to an outgoing email SMPT server. Your
network administrator will know this information. If you use Outlook Express
with a POP3 connection, you can find your SMPT server by looking at the
“Server” tab on the account properties page.

2. Enter the SMPT server in the top field and enter an Encoder email address
in the bottom field.
Note: This does not have to be a valid address – the message sent to the
user states that the email is automatically generated and that they should not
reply to it.
You may also need to allow SMPT traffic on the server. Consult with your
System Administrator and refer to Help for OS X.
