Account Setup Editor Help

About Account Setup's Functional Modes

Account Setup is designed to offer two distinct capabilities to end users--that of connecting to an Internet account server to create new accounts (IAS mode); and that of simply using Account Setup to configure their dialer and TCP/IP software to access an account they already have (NCI mode).

To offer the IAS mode, you must have a dedicated Internet account server implemented according to Netscape's Internet Account Server Protocol. See the Guide to Online Internet Account Creation document for information about setting up an Internet account server.

For more information about the IAS mode of Account Setup, refer to the Using the Account Setup Editor section of the Mission Control documentation.

Use Account Setup's global options to choose which functional mode you want to use.
