I used NET USER to set up all users for a new system. I had a customer who was migrating from UNIX to Windows [much as it pained me to take part in such a thing ;-) ]. I moved the /etc/passwd file from UNIX and wrote a BASIC program to read it in and generate new users on Windows. Naturally, I couldn't interpret the passwords from UNIX. We just plugged the new passwords and forced the users to change them upon first login. The command was: net user user_id new_password /add /fullname "user_name" where userid and user_name came from the passwd file. You will need to have administrator access to perform this, for the obvious security reasons. You can type net user /help at the DOS prompt for more information.

RE: [U2] UD: Login users
Bill;
If they're already in why do they need a user?? ;-)
You can try the net user command (windows command use !net ... To run).
Note I have only used it for users to update their own password so not
sure how well it will work to create new users (access permissions to do
it).
Would it be better/easier/safer/more expandable to have the dedicated
users to access from ASP (may aid later with connection pooling) and
have the application keep track of the user?

[U2] UD: Login users
I run UD 7.1 on Windows 2K3. We're testing an ASP server and find the need
for our Windows staff to create user's to login to UniData quite onerous.
We'd prefer that our ASP clients be able to create their own users "from
within UniData" and manage this process themselves. Is this even possible
in the U2 products?
We created a directory for all ASP accounts in "E:\ASP". We've created a
unique Windows group called "UniData" and removed all permissions on this
directory except for Administrators and UniData group members (certain
support personnel get assigned to the UniData group. Each account has a
group called "UniData{AcctName}" (so we end up with a number of groups at
least equal to the number of accounts under the "E:\ASP" directory. Again,
we remove all permissions on this account-directory except for
Administrators, UniData, and UniData{AcctName} group members.
Now when each user is created we need to:
1) Create a Windows user as a member of "users" and "UniData{AcctName}"
groups
2) Use UniAdmin to create a user profile for this user that sets up the
users startup directory to their account
3) Create a user profile within the application with the same password as
the Windows user to be used by the application.
Previous to UniData, we could manage all access to the dbms "from within the
application", so we were never involved with managing ASP client's users.
I'm hoping there is some way we can avoid this administration task.
Thanks,
Bill Haskett

Why not create you're working directory someplace with a shorter path? I wouldn't recommend creating a working directory within the home path anyway. What if you had to delete the home and reload it? You would have to move your data files to another location so you could delete the home directory or would have to delete the individual files, a real pain. - Original Message - From: "Bill Haskett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Friday, March 10, 2006 6:42 PM Subject: [U2] [UD] Login I've been logging into UniData v7.1 on Win 2K3 for a project and am finally asking a few questions about the login: 1) Do I have to type in the full path (instead of just the account), and 2) Am restricted (the 1st time I try) to sixteen characters in the path?

RE: [U2] [UD] Login
Bill; 1. Yes, you have to type in the full path. 2. Worked for me on 6.0.12 (W2k). Not sure if it's a version or PE issue. Normally I use UniAdmin (or telnetcfg) to update the default user. I put the proper account path in the startup dir and uncheck the prompt directory check box. This will always log you into an account and you can logto different accounts from there. You can either update any other user you see in here or delete them and they will use the default user config the next time they login. The directory keeps anything you enter - even if it is incorrect.
