Basic Authentication

Specify this authentication method when using the machine's Address Book to authenticate each user.

access to stored files and to the Address Book. Under Basic authentication, the administrator must
specify the functions available to each user registered in the Address Book. For details about limitation of
functions, see page 39 "Authentication Information Stored in the Address Book".
