7.6 Adding User Accounts
The following sections explain how to use two different methods for adding user
accounts:
• The Authorize utility (AUTHORIZE)
• A command procedure
7.6.1 Adding a User Account with AUTHORIZE
Once you analyze the purpose of a user account and decide which attributes and
resources it requires, you can use the Authorize utility (AUTHORIZE) to create
the account.
How to Perform This Task
1. Give yourself the SYSPRV privilege:
$ SET PROCESS/PRIVILEGE=SYSPRV
2. Enter the following commands to set your default device and directory to
SYS$SYSTEM and invoke AUTHORIZE:
$ SET DEFAULT SYS$SYSTEM
$ RUN AUTHORIZE
UAF>
3. Use the AUTHORIZE command ADD to specify attributes in the UAF fields
as shown in the following example:
UAF> ADD JONES/PASSWORD=LPB57WM/UIC=[014,1] -
_UAF> /DEVICE=DISK$USER/DIRECTORY=[JONES] -
_UAF> /LGICMD=DISK$USER:[NEWPROD]GRPLOGIN -
_UAF> /OWNER="ROBERT JONES"/ACCOUNT=DOC
Choosing Qualifiers
This section lists the qualifiers that you can use when setting up an account
with AUTHORIZE. Table 7–6 lists the qualifiers under the account attribute that
they affect. See Section 7.11.2 for a detailed description of each qualifier. For a
complete list of AUTHORIZE qualifiers, see the OpenVMS System Management
Utilities Reference Manual.
