Notes

  • You must be logged on as a member of the Administrators or the Power Users group to complete this procedure. If your computer is connected to a network, network policy settings might also prevent you from completing this procedure.

  • To open Phone Book Administrator, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Phone Book Administrator.

  • The country.txt file included in the PBA directory will help you determine the required country or dependency code.

  • When you set the surcharge key, Connection Manager treats the POP as an alternate access number. For more information, see Related Topics.

  • Sign up is not a default option in Connection Manager. You need to specify it, just as you do in Custom 1 and Custom 2.

  • Do not clear the Sign on check box. This option must remain selected so that Connection Manager can display the access number.

  • Although Phone Book Administrator is only available in English, French, German, Japanese, and Spanish, and the country/dependency list is only available in English, country/dependency names chosen from the English list appear in the same language as the Connection Manager profile. For more information, see Related Topics.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
