Referencing and Using Leaf Objects
User-Related Leaf Objects
User Represents a person who uses the
network.
In the User object properties,
login restrictions, intruder
detection limits, password and
password restrictions, security
equivalences, etc., can be set.
Required for every user who needs to
log in to the network.
When you create a User object, you
can create a home directory for that
user who then has default rights to that
home directory.
When you create User objects, you can
also choose to apply a user template to
the users that provides default
property values.
For users who have NetWare 4
workstations, you can create the User
objects anywhere in the Directory tree,
but the users must know their context
in order to log in. Create User objects
in the container where the users
typically log in.
For users who have other
workstations, create the User objects
in the container where the bindery
services context is set for the server
that they need to log in to.
Bindery-based users do not need to
know their context because they log in
to the server rather than to the
Directory tree.
