You will now see the new connection listed in the left-hand column. Make sure it is selected, and then enter your XMission username in the "Account Name" field and the corresponding password in the "Password" field. In the example below, we have used "bobdobbs" as a username. You would replace this with your own, unique XMission username. Remember that passwords are case-sensitive! You will also likely want to check the two box to "Remember this password." After you've finished that, click "Advanced."
