Scripted Account management?

[ppcaddict]

Filemaker Pro 8 Tech Brief states:

"While scripted Account management can administer internally authenticated Accounts, this process can easily become cumbersome and error prone with a larger number of files."

How do you go about doing this? I'm fairly new to FM 8, it's been a while since I've use FM and I don't have that many files to admin, 4 or 5. Not really in production yet and was just wondering if there is a way to push account management across mulitple files. I know, I know, External Auth but that's not an option right now...

Yes. Use External Server Authentication. That way there is only one location where Accounts need be be managed. See the External Server Tech Brief on the FMI Web site:
