The following list will give you a brief overview of the system groups:
system-admin
Members of this group have access to the administration GUI of SX-GATE. By
default users will only gain access to the "My Account" menu. However the
administrator can grant access to other menus, too.
system-mail
The user has a mailbox on SX-GATE. Access to this mailbox is possible via POP3,
IMAP4 or webmail with login and password.
Optionally the user can be entitled to use the credentials for authenticated access
to the mail relay server of SX-GATE. This is necessary if the mail server has been
configured to forward mail to the Internet only after a successful SMTP-Auth login.
system-proxy
Some of SX-GATE's proxies can be configured to allow authenticated access
only. By adding a user to this group you can grant the required right.
system-ras
Members of this group are able to authenticate RAS connections to SX-GATE.
This applies to direct ISDN dial-in connections as well as to connections to SX-
GATE's IPSec and L2TP servers.
The user "admin" is always member of the system groups
"system-mail" and "system-admin". Therefore these groups are
not listed when "admin" has been selected.
12.3.2-B
Password
On SX-GATE there are two types of passwords. The user password already has to be
assigned when adding a new user. The user can change this password anytime at "My
Account > Change password", provided he is member of group "system-admin" and
therefore has access to the administration GUI.
The administrator can assign a static password per system group. This password can
only be set on this screen and therefore it is only changeable by administrators.
Change user password
In this area you can change the user password. This will affect all accounts of the user
which have not been configured to use a fixed password.
Fixed password for system-admin
Set or clear a fixed password for access of the selected user to SX-GATE's
administration GUI.
