Adding a DNS Number
If your ISP or dial-in server requires a DNS number and you did not
enter that information in the Network Preferences screen, it will
appear that you successfully logged into your network. However,
when you try to use an application or look up information, the
connection fails. If this occurs, try adding a DNS number. Ask your
ISP or your System Administrator for the correct Primary and
Secondary DNS IP numbers.
Owner Preferences
The Owner Preferences screen enables you to record a name, company
name, phone number or any other information that you want
associated with your Palm III organizer.
If you use the Security application to turn off and lock your Palm III
organizer with a password, information that you put in the Owner
Preferences displays the next time you turn on your Palm III
organizer. See “Security” for more information.
To enter the Owner Preferences:
■ Enter the text that you want to associate with your Palm III
organizer in the Owner Preferences screen. If you enter more text
than will fit on one screen, a scroll bar automatically appears on
the right side of the screen.
If you assign a Password (with the Security application), the
information in the Owner Preferences screen “locks” and cannot be
changed. In this case, an Unlock button appears at the bottom of the
screen.
