Changing Logon Defaults
•
The Super ID can also add a manager to the SALES group by adding a user with the
user ID 255. For example, to add the manager BOSS, enter:
> ADDUSER SALES.BOSS, 8,255
•
The new manager, BOSS, can add other members to the SALES group. For
example:
> ADDUSER SALES.PAT, 8,2
> ADDUSER SALES.DANA, 8,3
Changing Logon Defaults
If the user SALES.BONNIE wants to change her default volume, subvolume, and file
security, she would enter:
> LOGON SALES.BONNIE
Password: <password>
> DEFAULT $DATA1.BONNIEF, "NUUU"
> LOGOFF
The default volume and subvolume for SALES.BONNIE are now $DATA1.BONNIEF.
The security for all disk files that SALES.BONNIE creates in the new default volume
and subvolume will be NUNU.
For more information, see the TACL Reference Manual about the DEFAULT program
and the File Utility Program (FUP) Reference Manual about file security settings.
About Passwords
Rules regarding the correct number of characters required for passwords can vary from
system to system. Check with your operations manager if you have questions about rules
regarding passwords that might be specific to your system.
A password must not include blanks, commas, or null characters. Passwords are case-
sensitive; that is, those letters that are in uppercase the first time you enter a new
password must appear in uppercase whenever you enter that password (and the same is
true for lowercase letters).
For systems protected by the Safeguard security product, considerations and rules
regarding passwords can vary. For more information, see the Safeguard User’s Guide.
If users report that they have forgotten their passwords, your operations manager or
security administrator can help restore these users’ access to the system.
