This section describes how to create, modify, and delete M-Business Anywhere accounts from Mobile Web Studio and from M-Business Anywhere server. M-Business Anywhere accounts are needed to deploy applications to PDAs, such as PalmOS and PocketPC.
Unwired Accelerator integrates Mobile Web Studio and M-Business Anywhere 6.0. You can manage M-Business Anywhere accounts through Mobile Web Studio and M-Business Anywhere, but procedures may differ depending on how you have configured your system.
To create and manage Mobile Web Studio users of M-Business Anywhere, when Unwired Accelerator is configured for self-registration, use Manage | M-Business.
When Unwired Accelerator is not configured for self-registration, you must create M-Business Anywhere user accounts through the M-Business Anywhere administrative console as well through Mobile Web Studio. The accounts must be identical. See “M-Business Anywhere accounts” for information.
To manage users accounts through M-Business Anywhere, log in to the administrative console to set up users as described in “M-Business Anywhere accounts”.
Keep in mind the following:
The global.properties.xml property, MB.AutoRegistration, determines how user accounts are handled when Unwired Accelerator and M-Business Anywhere are integrated.
If MB.AutoRegistration is set to true, when a user joins Portal Interface, or a user is added to Mobile Web Studio, the user automatically joins the M-Business Anywhere server with the same user name and password. See “Configuring M-Business Anywhere” for information about changing the MB.AutoRegistraiton setting.
If MB.AutoRegistration is set to false, Mobile Web Studio does not self-register to M-Business Anywhere. The StudioAdmin user can register a Mobile Web Studio user in M-Business Anywhere using Manage | User/Roles, and selecting “Create M-Business user.” See “Configuring M-Business Anywhere” for information about changing the MB.AutoRegistraiton setting.
For existing Mobile Web Studio users who do not have an account in M-Business Anywhere:
The M-Business Anywhere administrator can create an account for the user in M-Business Anywhere.
The Mobile Web Studio administrator can create an M-Business user in Mobile Web Studio by selecting Manage | Users/Roles, selecting a user and right-clicking, and selecting Create M-Business User.
The Mobile Web Studio user can self-register in M-Business server or in Mobile Web Studio (using Manage | M-Business); or the Mobile Web Studio.
User names in Mobile Web Studio and M-Business Anywhere must match. Also, if you create a user in M-Business server, an account is not created for the user in Mobile Web Studio.
To manage Mobile Web Studio users, use Manage | Users/Roles.
To manage Mobile Web Studio users of M-Business Anywhere, use Manage | M-Business.
To create M-Business Anywhere users, use M-Business Anywhere or use Mobile Web Studio (Manage | M-Business).
If you delete a user from Mobile Web Studio, through Manage | Users/Roles, the user is not automatically deleted from M-Business Anywhere.
