This menu displays one user’s information in each row. There are two panels of this menu – left
and right panels, as indicated by the right-pointing arrow () at the top of the menu. The fields
and columns in the left panel of this menu include:
• User: Your user name. This field cannot be edited.
• Name: The user names assigned to all user accounts. Except for the special user name
“admin,” these user names can be edited: You can type in new names up to eight
alphanumeric characters long (not case-sensitive).
• Group: The ID numbers of the security groups to which users are assigned.
• Adm: Indicates whether any given user has administrator privileges. You can use the Ç and
È keys to toggle between “Yes” and “No” (the default setting).
Use the arrow keys, Tab, Shift + Tab, Page Up, and Page Down to move within this menu and
its submenus. Press Enter to edit a highlighted field; it will turn green. When you finish editing a
field, press Enter to save the changes or press Esc to abort changes.
Press Tab or the Æ key to move through the fields to the right panel of the menu and display
users’ connection information. The Connection column displays which channel port (if any) each
active user is currently connected to.
