Using the Net and Tracert Utilities
Net and Tracert utilities are available for administrative use (for example, to determine the
route taken by packets across an IP network). For more information on these utilities, go
to: http://www.microsoft.com
.
Managing Users and Groups with User Accounts
Use the User Accounts window (Start > Control Panel > User Accounts) to create and
manage user accounts, create and manage groups, and configure advanced user profile
properties. By default, a new user is only a member of the Users group and is not locked
down. As the administrator, you can select the attributes and profile settings for users.
This section provides quick-start guidelines on:
• "Creating User Accounts"
• "Editing User Accounts"
• "Configuring User Profiles"
TIP: For detailed information on using the User Accounts window, click the help icon and
examples links provided throughout the wizards. For example, you can use the Windows
Help and Support window (click the help icon in the User Accounts window) to search
for items such as user profiles and user groups and obtain links to detailed steps on
creating and managing these items.
Creating User Accounts
Only administrators can create new user accounts locally or remotely through VNC.
However, due to local flash/disk space constraints, the number of additional users on the
thin client should be kept to a minimum.
CAUTION: Be sure to flush the files of the File Based Write Filter cache during the current
system session in which a new account is created (see "Before Configuring Your Thin
Clients").
1. Log-in as an administrator and open the User Accounts window (Start > Control
Panel > User Accounts).
