Understanding the Logon Sequence
MASTER USER’S GUIDE 3/3
What happens after logging-on?
After a successful logon, the security system displays the following
security-related information: the ownership string (if defined), some
logon statistics and, if the account includes the appropriate user
right, an invitation to “Press ALT+S for Security Setup”.
For example:
Property of Imperial Assurance Co Ltd
No of valid logons 11, Last valid logon 21-09-96
No of invalid logons 2, Last invalid logon 04-09-96
Press ALT+S for Security Setup (if required)
The no. of valid logons, no. of invalid logons, and the last
invalid logon, are statistics that are the same for all users. The last
valid logon relates only to the currently logged-on user; it records
the last date on which he (or someone using his user account)
logged on. These statistics can be reset from within LOC
Technology Setup.
Variations caused by Quick Logon
If the security configuration includes a user account with the Quick
Logon facility, the logon sequence is not started automatically each
time the computer is turned on or rebooted.
Instead, the security information appears straight away.
Property of Imperial Assurance Co Ltd
No of valid logons 11, Last valid logon 21-09-96
No of invalid logons 2, Last invalid logon 04-09-96
Press ALT+S for Security Setup (if required)
Press ALT+L for Logon Sequence
In this case the last valid logon date relates to the Quick Logon
account, and “Press ALT+S for Security Setup” only appears if the
Quick Logon account has the appropriate user right. In addition,
however, there is an invitation to “Press ALT+L for Logon
Sequence”.
