Create an Administrative User Account
Create administrative user accounts for those individuals who will manage your MultiPoint Server
system. To see who has administrative access, in MultiPoint Manager, click the Users tab.
Administrative user accounts are displayed in the Account Type column as administrator .
Administrative users have access to all MultiPoint Manager tasks that change desktop and system
settings, such as:
●
Creating accounts
●
Adding and removing programs
●
Managing desktops and hardware
●
Ending other user sessions
Administrative users can perform tasks that affect all other users of the MultiPoint Server system, such as
install software or change security settings. For this reason administrative users should have unique user
names and passwords that are known only to them.
NOTE: For more information about developing a strategy for creating and managing user accounts
and using strong passwords for user accounts, see the User Account Considerations topic.
