    Hi,

    If you have successfully installed the add in module, it will be automatically enabled after you restart the server (even this step should have been done by the add in installer if i remember correctly) the following will be available :

    Go to the conf folder under your FMS installation dir.You will find two files there, users.exe and users.dat

    <FMSInstallDir>\conf\

    Users.exe is a command line utility which you can use to add or edit users. check the help options for the commands. Once you add a user, open your FMLE and try to make a simple connection to your FMS. FMLE will autodetect the add in installer and will pop up a login box to authenticate.

    Please let us know if this helps.

    Thank you !

    thank you for your help but it did not work for me i installed the FMS on the default pass knowing iam using win 64 and i installed the FMS authentication add-in for this version it said installation complete and the server restarted

    i used cmd to reach /conf i found the 2 files i used command

    users add -u username -p password
