Viewing and Setting Attributes
To view attributes for a user group or a user:
t In the Users list of the User Management view, select the user group or user.
Attributes for the selected group or user are displayed in the Attributes pane.
If you select a group, the name and description are displayed. For an existing group, you can
add or edit a description.
If you select a user, the name is displayed, plus a description (inherited from the user group
by default), password, password confirmation, and email address, if you have entered them.
By default, the password field in the Attributes text box shows asterisks. If you choose to
allow the user to log in to the server with Internal Authentication, then you need to set the
password in the Attributes text box. For users that log in through other providers, you do not
need to specify the password. For more information, see
“Viewing and Setting
Authentication Providers for Individual Users” on page 131
