3.3 Setting Up Login Restrictions
Login restrictions are limitations on user accounts that control access to the network. These
restrictions can be set by an administrator in Novell iManager for each user’s eDirectory
TM
User
object and include the following:
Requiring a password
You can specify its minimum length, whether it must be changed and how often, whether it
must be unique, and whether the user can change it.
Setting the number of logins with an expired password and the number of incorrect login
attempts allowed
When a user violates login restrictions by entering an incorrect password or exceeding the
number of logins with an expired password, the account is disabled and no one can log in using
that username. This prevents unauthorized users from logging in.
Setting account limits such as an account balance or expiration date
Limiting disk space for each user by specifying the maximum blocks available for each user on
a volume
Specifying the number of simultaneous connections a user can have
Specifying (by node address) which workstations users can log in on
Restricting the times when users can log in (you can assign all users the same hours or you can
restrict users individually)
To manage user login restrictions:
1
Launch iManager by entering the following in the Address field of a network browser:
http://
server_IP_address
/iManager.html
2
Log in using your username and password.
You will have access only to those features you have rights to. To have full access to all Novell
iManager features, you must log in as Supervisor/Administrator of the tree.

on the top button bar, then select

Type the name and context of the User object you want to modify, or use the search feature to
find it, then click
OK
.

Click the
Restrictions
tab (or drop-down list, depending on the browser you are using).
