Once you open a session with a directory service or sql.ini, you can add, modify, rename, and delete server entries associated with that session.
The server entries associated with the session appear in the Server box. Click on a server entry to select it.
Each server entry is made up of a set of attributes. The attributes and attribute values of a server entry, shown in Table 8-1, appear on the right side of the dialog box.
