1. If you want to see a list of the disk devices on your computer, type:
SYSTAT
RETURN
The end of the display lists the available disk devices. Decide what device you want to add the
accounts to.
2. Log into account [1,2] on any disk device (for example, DSK0:). Type:
LOG DSK0:[1,2]
RETURN
If you weren't already logged into another account, you'll need to enter your user name after the
LOG command. If there's a password for this account, you'll be asked for it, too.
3. Type
SYSACT
followed by the name of the device you want to add the accounts to, and press
RETURN
. For example:
SYSACT DSK1:
RETURN
4. SYSACT responds with its prompt symbol, an asterisk. If you'd like to see a list of all the things
SYSACT can do, type:
*H
RETURN
5. From the list you see next, you can select different functions to perform. You want to add a new
account, so type
A
and the account number you want to add and press

RETURN
6. SYSACT responds:
Password:
SYSACT asks if you want to protect the new account with a password. You can enter a
password of up to six characters (A - Z, 0-9, $), or you can just press the
RETURN
key if you don't
want to assign a password. If you do enter a password, whenever other users try to log into that
account, they have to type the password. If they don't know the password, they aren't allowed to
log in.
7. You can see a list of all the account numbers on the disk device and their passwords by
selecting the L (List) function:
*L
RETURN
8. When you are finished using the SYSACT command and are ready to return to AMOS
command level, select the E (end) option:
*E
RETURN
SYSACT returns you to AMOS command level and the AMOS prompt symbol appears on your
screen.
