a moment to set up.
11 After your network settings have been specified, you are advanced to the License Key page.

12 Click Check for Updates, to check for updates to the system and components. This process
goes out to the Internet to check for updates. Make sure you have an active Internet connection
for this process. If updates are found, select Install Updates to install the latest updates.
Be sure not to browse away from this page while the updates are installing.
13 Click Next to continue with installation.
14 On the User Information page, specify the password information for the administrator login.
You have two options:
Basic setup. Specify a password for the NOWS SBE Administrator. The server root
password is set to be the same.
Advanced Mode. Click the link labeled Advanced Mode, which allows you to specify a
separate password for the NOWS SBE Administrator (sbsadmin) and for the server admin
(root).
The difference between these two passwords is that the NOWS SBE Administrator password
enables you to add, remove, and configure components on your NOWS SBE server from the
NOWS SBE administration console. The server (root) password is what you use to configure or
update your server from the console. If you do not choose to make each password different,
then the passwords are the same as the NOWS SBE Administrator password you have chosen.
Passwords must be at least five characters long and cannot include any special characters.
15 Click Next to continue with installation.
You are now directed to the Available Software page. This section is optional. You are not
required to install any of the components at this time. If you do not install the components, you
will have the opportunity to add components from the NOWS SBE administration console
later. The components have been grouped together with similar software types for easy location
of what you need to install.
16 Click Next, then click Install to proceed to the NOWS SBE administration login.
17 Click the Continue to Administration button.
18 To log in to the administration page, specify the username of the administrator and the
password you chose during the installation, then click Login.
