Internet Express for Tru64 UNIX Version 6.10 Administration Guide (5900-1418, March 2011)

To delete a group, click on the Delete button. This will remove the group definition and
menu item from the user's main menu but will not remove any files. A status message is
displayed.
•
• To modify group attributes, click on the Modify button. For built-in groups, you can only
modify the Enabled status and the description string. All group attributes, except ID, are
available for custom groups.
a. Change the group description in the Description field.
b. Change the name for the main page. This name should be relative to User
Self-Administration home directory. For example, if the file is located at
$selfadmin_home/data/foo.php, then its name should be set to data/
foo.php.
c. Select the Create Template check box if you want a template created for the main
page. Use the template file as the basis for all files you create in this group. Existing
templates will not be overwritten.
d. Select the Enabled check box to enable the group. When a group created with the
User Self-Administration feature is disabled, users cannot access the pages and the
link is not available from the menu.
e. Click on Submit. A status message is displayed when the group modifications are
processed.
Enabling and Disabling Groups
To enable or disable groups and not edit other properties, do the following:
1. From Manage User Self-Administration menu, choose Enable/Disable Groups. A list of existing
group descriptions is displayed. Each description is followed by a check box.
A checked box indicates that the group is enabled and an unchecked box indicates it is
disabled. Enable or disable a group as desired.
2. Click on Submit. A status message is displayed.
Customizing the User Self-Administration Feature
You can add functionality to allow users to make changes to other user account information. The
Administration utility allows users to change their passwords and use a vacation mail service.
Note:
Changes to the vacation mail service can be made only if you have installed the Procmail subset
(IAEPROC).
To add functionality, you should create a new group for each menu item to be added to the user's
main menu page (see Section : Managing User Self-Administration Groups). All new files must be
in the /usr/internet/httpd/admin/htdocs/osis/selfadmin/data directory to ensure
that they are not deleted during future Internet Express updates.
To customize the User Self-Administration feature:
1. From the Manage Users Menu, choose Manage User Self-Administration.
2. Follow instructions in Section : Adding Groups to add a new group. Select the option to create
a template in the Add Group form. Use the created page as a basis for each PHP page in
group.
3. Follow instructions in Section : Enabling and Disabling Groups to enable the group after you
have completed adding your custom functionality.
Alternately, you can add new functionality without using groups. This method will, however, prevent
you from selectively enabling or disabling groups. For more information and instructions, refer to
