Configuring user accounts
From the Configuration > User Accounts screen you can set the password for the user, administrator,
or security accounts.
• User — The user account allows access to library status information and does not allow
access to configuration, maintenance, or operation features. A password is not required for
the user account. Setting a user password restricts access to status information to only those
who know the user password. The user password can be set or changed from the administrator
user.
• Administrator — Setting an administrator password provides access to the administrator
functions with the RMI or OCP, and restricts access to administrator functions to only those
who know the administrator password. The library initially has a null administrator password,
which until set allows unrestricted access to all administrative functions through the OCP but
not the RMI. Once the administrator password has been set from the OCP, it can be changed
by the administrator user from either the OCP or RMI.
• Security — Setting the security password provides access to configure encryption functions.
The default password is security. The security user has access to all administrator
functionality and can also configure security features and change the security user password.
