Adding Users to the System
To add users to the system, you normally use the SET USER command, the SHOW
USER command, the ADD USER command, and the INFO USER command.
For example, consider these series of commands, which assigns the group name
ADMIN to group number 1 and adds the user ADMIN.MANAGER to the group.
Use the SET USER command to set default USER attributes:
=SET USER PASSWORD-MUST-CHANGE EVERY 30 DAYS
