Manager Port Specifies the port number used by the Network Manager.
Server Port Specifies the port number used by the Network Server(s).
These settings specify the port number to be used by the software. These

number.
NOTE Port numbers are like extensions for different users of the same phone
number. They represent two channels of communication between the Server and
the Manager. Only a trained network administrator should change these settings.
Automatic Search When on, starting the Server searches for a Manager using

Server may fail to detect a Manager if the network subnet mask (in the
Windows TCP/IP Network Configuration dialog) is set to some other value

If that is the case, change the subnet mask setting in the Server General
Properties dialog to match the system setting. Start the Server again and it
should detect the Manager. When multiple Managers are running on the same
