instead

. Enter as many sets of these values as needed.

Note: The user name should include the domain name. For example,

domainname/username.

Note: The Port # can be blank for a set if appropriate.

Note: Since each port number can only be associated with a user name and password, when the same
port number (including a blank entry) is specified in more than one set (row) of WBEM credentials, only
the last set with that port number value will be retained. In other words, when several sets of WBEM
credentials sharing the same port number are specified, the last set with that same port number replaces
all previous entries.
