Users

Use the index screen to access existing user definitions or create a new user.

The fields on the User properties page correspond to the parameters in the users.conf configuration file.

You can assign permissions to the user from the User properties page by adding Access Control Lists (ACLs) for individual destinations. This provides a very granular level of control. Use the Groups property page to assign the same set of permissions to a group of people.

Similarly, you can grant administrative privileges to the user by adding an Admin ACL on the User page. You can also add the user to a group with administrative privileges.

Note: Users configured here are local, and apply only to the current EMS server. Users that are defined through JAAS or LDAP do not appear on these pages. To add permissions to externally sourced users (those configured through the JAAS module), use the ACLs page.
