Configuring System Preferences

After you have installed Final Cut Server, you can continue its

setup by configuring Final Cut Server System Preferences.

You configure Final Cut Server System Preferences in the Mac OS X System Preferences.

Introduction to Final Cut Server System Preferences

After you have installed Final Cut Server, a Final Cut Server item is added to the Other
section of System Preferences. Clicking this item shows the General pane (or the last
pane that was selected) of Final Cut Server System Preferences. The Final Cut Server
installer configures the settings in these panes to defaults that you may need to
change. Be sure to verify these settings before opening any Final Cut Server clients.

The top of the System Preferences pane includes buttons to select which
Final Cut Server panes to configure. The lower-right corner includes a question mark
button that opens the onscreen version of this guide as a PDF file. The lower-left corner
displays the lock icon that you use to authenticate yourself. You must authenticate
yourself before you can make any changes to the Final Cut Server settings.
