If admin (Super Admin) or user with Remote Admin Privilege you may create a
System user if not exist by entering the desired name in the text area of
the "Available System Users". If Remote Admin, you must include the remote server
name along with the system user name like so:
myuser:/remoteservername (please refer to the Remote Servers topic)
system user is a special user in Windows. The system user is a privilege user and
should only be used under a trusted environment or for testing. system user is the
only local user enabled for Windows other than Windows 2003 and Windows 2008.
The password for system is the same as the password for the admin user.

Click the "Accounts" Fisheye menu item
Click the "Add Admin Account" Tab
Select one of the "Available Admin Accounts".
The "available Admin Accounts" are extracted from data based upon the
Control Panel rules mentioned in the "User Types" section of this document, i.e.,
Client in Plesk and Resellers in cPanel/WHM.
Then select a corresponding Admin Group
Click "Add" to add the user as an Admin user for the NGASI AppServer Manager
For Remote Admin, first create the Login Access by going to the following URL

Assigning Account Admins are ideal for Resellers or in the case of Plesk,
assigning the Client as Admin, will enable them to chose which Domain
FTP user to gain access as a NGASI Account User.
