Group authorization

Password security requirements

System Guide
Job Management and Customer Diagnostics are two
functions of DocuSP that the administrator may choose to
restrict. Using the [Group Administrator] tab in the interface,
the administrator can choose to enable or disable the service
for a particular user group.
When the system is installed, the Change System Password
dialog box appears and prompts users to establish all System
Default Accounts with new passwords. For security reasons,
all system passwords must be changed.
• root: has super user access to the workstation. The initial
password for this account is set during installation of the
operating system and should be obtained from the Xerox
service personnel.
NOTE: For security reasons, the root account password
should be changed as soon as the Xerox service
personnel have completed the installation.
• The Xerox user name is the account from which the Xerox
software runs. Enter the Xerox user password for this
account. Contact your Customer Service Representative
if this is unknown.
NOTE: The administrator should verify access to the
Xerox application for all levels before the service
installation personnel leave the site
• ftp: an account to permit some clients to retrieve their
software from the DocuSP controller using the TCP/IP
communication protocol. This account will be set to Read-
only access to the /export/home/ftp directory
• pxrxsvc: the account for remote diagnostics by Xerox
service personnel. The DocuSP controller is accessed
using PPP communications via a modem.
NOTE: To maintain system security, it is recommended that
any restricted access login be terminated as soon as the
session has been completed.
