Configuring Users and Groups

Use the Users & Groups page to add, modify, or remove user accounts on the ztC Edge system, or to grant access for Active Directory users. You can select a user and view the time when the user's password was last updated. An administrator can also use the page to force a selected user to change the user's password on the next login.

To open this page, click Preferences in the left-hand navigation panel and then on the Preferences page, select Users & Groups under Administrative Tools.

To manage local user accounts

To add a new user, click Add in the lower pane. To modify an existing user, click the name of a user account and click Edit or Remove.

To view the time when a user last changed the user's password, look at the Last Password Update Time column for a selected user. To force a user to change the user's password on the next login, an administrator selects the user and then clicks Expire Password.

For more information, see Managing Local User Accounts.

To sort and locate user accounts
