SharePoint Foundation 2010 Activation Guide

Thank you for choosing SherWeb as your Hosted SharePoint Foundation 2010 provider. We are pleased to inform you that your account has been activated.

Please take a few minutes to carefully read this guide and review our knowledge base at support.sherweb.com. Doing so will allow you to easily and successfully get your SharePoint site up and running. If you don’t find the answer to your question on our support site, you can email us any time at support@sherweb.com for further assistance.

Step 1: Accessing the SherWeb Control Panel

Address: http://admin.sherweb2010.com/
Admin Username: defaultuser@your-domain.com
Admin Password: your-password

Step 2: Creating your SharePoint site

You can log in to the SherWeb Control Panel and create your site. Please refer to this guide to set up your site.

Step 3: Creating the host record for your SharePoint site

Before you can access your SharePoint portal, you will need to create a new host entry in the DNS server that hosts your domain name. This new host, called ”sharepoint” or any name of your choice, needs to point to IP address assigned to your site. You’ll find your assigned IP address into your Control Panel.

Step 4: Creating users and adding content

Once your site is set up, you will need to log into it using the administrator email and password that you used during the initial creation. From there you can start adding users, creating permissions and adding content. For more information on how to create a user, please refer to this guide.
