Anonymous User Account
The SPD Server uses a general ID that is called 'anonymous'. Any person that can connect
to the server can do so using the anonymous user ID. The anonymous ID cannot be removed
from the password database using the psmgr utility and the delete command. If you want
to prevent anonymous user ID access, the SPD Server administrator must use the psmgr
utility to add a user called, "anonymou" to the password database, and keep the password
secret.
Any table that is created by the anonymous user ID can be viewed by all users who have
access to that table's domain. The anonymous ID does have the ability to place ACLs on
the table to limit access.
/* John logs in using the anonymous */
/* user ID and creates a table
/* Mary can also log in as anonymous
/* and read the table that John
/* created.
/* user1 can log in and read the table */
/* that John created
