Thanks for the input. On both things, I am not sure: I just copies it from the FileMaker page http://help.filemaker.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/7601/~/specifying-a-user-account-to-run-system-level-scripts-with-filemaker-server , which seemed to say the only thing I needed to change was the "yourhostname" which I did change to our host name. What do you think should go in the place of "targetpw"?
