Changing User Name on PIX 501
I am installing my first PIX 501 v6.3(5) and am in the process of setting up the initial configuration. I have accomplished the initial settings for both the outside and inside interfaces and have Internet access. I am struggling with the first of probably many issues though.
I am using the wizard to configure step by step and testing each modification as I go.
Maybe I can get some fast answers to a few basic questions.
1. I have changed the password but don't see hou to establish a User Name. How do I establihs/modify a User Name?
2. The Realm is "PIX" on the login screen. Is that relevant? should it be changed and if so how do I change it?
3. I see how to open the running configuration in a broswer window and I almost understand it, (well at least I can read it). Is there a way to modify, save, and apply the running configuration via an interface other than the wizard? If so how?
This should give me enough information to be dangerous for a while.
Thanks in advance,

Stressedout2004,
Thank you very much! I provided the second post for informational purposes and failed to mention that I want everyone inside to have unrestricted access out and the only inbound access should be to the 2 servers. Their inbound access is for Windows Terminal services, IIS, MS Exchange, OWA, FTP.
I think I am going to reset the PIX to the factory defaults and start over. I would appreciate assistance with the configuration and would be happy to award these points and post a new question for additional points appropriate.
Thank you for the answers so far,

Sorry for the poor typing in my initial question, (lack of coffee). I thought I'd provide you with what I am trying to accomplish as I think it is pretty standard.
Netopia Router --- (ISP Provided, xxx.xxx.xxx.193)

PIX ---------------- (xxx.xxx.xxx.199 outside, 192.168.2.1 inside)

Windows 2003 R2 Server1 - DC Domain1 - www, Exch2K, FTP (xxx.xxx.xxx.200 outside, 192.168.2.200 inside)
Windows 2000 Server2 - DC Domain2 - www, Exch2K, FTP (xxx.xxx.xxx.201 outside, 192.168.2.201 inside)
Switch to wireless LAN devices, Workstations (Win2k & XP), Printers etc. via NAT & DHCP, (192.168.2.xxx)
I think that's pretty much it. I do have a block of 10 more public IP's for future growth.
Any and all suggestions/questions are most welcome. I like getting it right the first time.
