Appendix I Managing Users - HP t100 Maintenance And Service Manual

I Managing Users
This section describes the different types of user accounts, how to create user accounts, and how to
manage user accounts. In a MultiPoint Server system, there are two types of user accounts, standard
and administrative, as described below.
TIP:
The User Account Considerations topic provides guidelines to help you develop strategies for
managing the user accounts.
Standard user accounts
Create standard user accounts for those users who will regularly access stations, but who will not
manage stations, such as students. These user accounts display with the term standard on the User
tab, in the Account Type column. Users with standard user accounts can, for example, save files and
change desktop settings, but cannot change the screen resolution. Any desktop changes the user makes
are present when the user logs on again. For information about how to create a standard user account,
see the Create a Standard User Account topic.
Administrative user accounts
Create administrative user accounts for those individuals who will manage the MultiPoint Server system.
Administrative user accounts display with the term administrator on the User tab, in the Account
Type column. Administrative users have access to all MultiPoint Manager tasks that change desktop
and system settings, such as:
● Creating accounts
● Adding and removing programs
● Managing desktops and hardware
● Ending or disconnecting other user sessions
