Work with User and Group Accounts in Operating System Mode

If you are using Operating System security mode, you can use either individual users or user groups.

To add or edit a user or group account

1. Open the Security Editor dialog box.

2. On the Edit menu, click User/Group Accounts.

   The User/Group Accounts Editor dialog box appears.

   

3. Click Browse to select a user or domain. See Browsing to Locate a User or a Group in Operating System Mode.

   After you have made your choice in the Browse dialog box, the User/Group ID and User/Group Name boxes are populated by the selection.

   The User/Group Name is in the domain\username format. If you are adding local users, the domain is blank by default.

4. To optionally assign roles to the user or group, click Roles. See Working with Security Roles.

5. Click Add.

   Note: Password options are not applicable to Operating System security mode. Therefore, Password Last Changed appears as Operating System Controlled, and the Password button is unavailable.

6. Click Recipes to optionally assign recipes to a user or group. See Browsing to Locate a User or a Group in Operating System Mode.

7. Click Op Stations to optionally assign specific operator stations to users or groups. See Working with Operator Station Security.
