Managing User Accounts

Users need to authenticate as the login to SecureSync. The system administrator
is responsible for maintaining a list of user accounts (user names, passwords etc.)
via the MANAGEMENT > OTHER: Authentication screen of the SecureSync
Web UI (HTTP/HTTPS). Note that user accounts CANNOT be created or edited
via CLI commands using telnet or SSH.

groups are exactly the same whether logging in via the Web UI, or connecting via
SSH.

MANAGEMENT menu, see below), the screens and panels located below the
main menus will differ in such that the "user" UI will show fewer (if any) con-
