Configuring NetIDMgr and identities

All NetIDMgr configuration options can be accessed via the Options menu. The available configuration panels are:

Configuration of default settings for all identities

The Identities configuration panel allows you to set the defaults that will be used for all identities. However, most of the settings displayed here can be overridden with specific per-identity settings.

The panel will have a number of sub panels (or tabs) corresponding to each plug-in that maintains per-identity configuration.

A list of identities for which configuration information is maintained will be shown under the main Identities configuration panel name. Each of these correspond to a per identity configuration panel.

Note that adding or removing an identity in the configuration panel only has the effect of adding or removing the identity to or from the list of identities for which configuration information is maintained.

Per identity configuration

You can access the per-identity configuration panel for a specific identity by selecting the identity name from the list of configuration panels in the configuration dialog.

These panels are similar to the Identities configuration panel, but they change per-identity settings. Changes you make in these panels will override the defaults set in the Identities panel.
