A User DSN can only be used by the user that created it; a System DSN can be used by any user on the system and File DSN just saves the settings to a file that can be shared across multiple systems.

    4. Enter the settings in the Data Source Configuration dialog box (similar to the image above), replacing the hostname with the hostname of your up.time server.

You should now be able to connect to the up.time DataStore through a number of applications. For detailed information, please refer to your application documentation.
