Line 1: + − + − + − − Note: − If you select Password Required, users who connect to the i-bay via FTP or HTTP will be prompted to supply that particular i-bay's username and password. The user name is always the name of the i-bay and the password is whatever the administrator assigns to that i-bay - not the individual user's password. Note that, as with user accounts, i-bay accounts are locked out by default. If a password is required, users will not be able to access the i-bay until the administrator sets the password. + Line 81:

{{Note box|The standard open source download includes instructions for a plain-vanilla Linux install, but the unique nature of SME Server requires a couple of simple variations. It's pretty easy; the key is to put the PHP code in the '''''HTML''''' folder, and the program storage in the '''''Files''''' folder of the same dedicated Ibay. This gets round the restriction built into SME which prevents the httpd process owner from writing into the protected area of the system - The standard ''Install'' script supplied in the program download assumes that this writing permission is available.}}

First use the SME Server Manager to create an ibay called 'epiware' with the kind of access you want and allow it to run CGI etc. For my trial I just chose to make it accessible on the local network with no password, but you could make it face the internet and protect it with a password, which will mean two usernames and two passwords to supply to gain access - see note below for howto access password protected i-bays.
