User Names, Passwords and Groups

You may want to change your system access passwords frequently, in order to maintain
optimum security on your network. The recommended passwords are a minimum of 6 and no
more than 12 characters in length, are not found in a dictionary, and contain both letters and
numbers. Because the system is case-sensitive for password entries, you can mix uppercase
and lowercase letters to provide more possible passwords.
The user administration function is activated by entering 'n' for usrNames from the CPU Main
screen, as shown in Figure 4-2 on page 4-2.
Note: The passwords MUST be at least six characters long and MUST be a combination of
characters and at least one digit!
The system supports 256 possible users. Each user is defined by the use of three entries or
fields. The fields are editable by a user who has Administrator or Superuser access. Following
is a brief description to the user fields:
User Name
An Alpha-numeric string
consisting of 6 to 12
characters. Duplicate user
names are not allowed,
i.e. all 256 user names
must be unique.
