—Editing a user
The available parameters are described below:
User Info:
Username: The name of the user being edited or added, read-only if editing,
changeable if adding a new user. The username of existing users cannot be
changed. If you wish to change the name of a user, the user entry must be
deleted and added under the new name
First Name
: The user's first name
Middle Name
: The user's middle name
Last Name
: The user's last name
Suffix
: The user's full name suffix (e.g., Jr.) if any
: The address associated with this user account. The primary purpose of
the email parameter is that Users with Administrator access are emailed copies
of any Recorder Alerts that are configured to send email.
Permissions:
Security
: This control provides a check box for each available predefined user
group: Admin, Archiver, Exporter, Maintainer, Monitor, Evaluator, Super
Evaluator and Researcher. Checking the box makes the user a member of that
group, and the user will inherit all permissions which that group provides. With
the exception of 'Admin' which is a hard coded internal group name providing
Administrator access, all of the user groups on the system and what
permissions they entail can be edited using the System: User Groups and
System: Permissions NexLog Configuration Manager pages. If many user groups
exist, this control can be scrolled to view them all. Check a box to add the user
to that group, on check to remove the user from the group.
