4. In the create shortcuts dialog box, click Yes to create a shortcut that you can use to start Admin Console again
later.
1 Windows: A shortcut is created on the desktop and in the Start menu under FileMaker Server. Depending on
the version of Java installed, the shortcuts may be created without prompting you.
1 Mac OS: After you click Yes, specify a name and location in the Save dialog box where to save the shortcut,
and then click Save.
The shortcut is helpful to manage several deployments of FileMaker Server from the same machine. The
shortcut name starts with "FMS9-" and is followed by the FileMaker Server name that you specified in the
Deployment assistant.
5. In the Login dialog box, enter the User Name and Password that you chose in the Deployment assistant when
you initially deployed FileMaker Server.
Admin Console starts and displays the FileMaker Server Overview pane.
Tip The best method for remote administration outside the administrator’s physical network is to keep a firewall in
place and use a secure mechanism to connect to your network, such as a virtual private network (VPN). Use Admin
Console to administer FileMaker Server on a remote computer once you are securely connected to your network.
