4.1.2 Creating a User
 To create a new user, issue the createuser -c|-e <password> <user_name>
<domain_name> <user_class>
command, where:
◆ -c|-e <password> is either a clear-text (-c) or encrypted (-e) password. A clear-text
password must be between 6 and 8 characters in length. An encrypted password must
be less than or equal to 31 characters in length. Encrypted passwords are generated by
the system. You can only enter previously generated encrypted passwords. If no
password is specified using
-c or -e, then you are prompted to enter a clear-text
password.
◆ <user_name> is the name of the newly created user.
◆ <domain_name> is the name of the domain to which the newly created user will
belong. If you are not using Domains, specify
all. If you are using Domains, specify the
name of an existing domain in your system.
◆ <user_class> is specified as super, browse, or edit and establishes the new user’s
level of accessibility within the specified domain.
NOTE: By default, users in systems not using Domains fall into the all domain.
For additional details about the
all domain, see the InForm OS Concepts Guide.
