dxaccounts(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     dxaccounts(8)

NAME

       dxaccounts - Graphical interface for account administration

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/X11/dxaccounts

DESCRIPTION

       The  Account  Manager  application, dxaccounts, helps you manage user accounts on your Tru64 UNIX system. It operates on both base security
       level systems and enhanced security (C2) level systems.

       The Account Manager application lets you manage both the local and Network Information Service (NIS) UNIX account databases. NIS is used in
       order  to  centrally  manage  user accounts in a network environment. NIS lets participating systems share a common set of passwd and group
       files. NIS uses a client-server model.

       When the Advanced Server for Tru64 UNIX product is installed, the Account Manager application allows you to  perform  domain  user  account
       management for PC users.

       To  start  Account  Manager  from  the CDE desktop:Choose the Application Manager from the CDE front panel.  Choose the System_Admin group.
       Choose the DailyAdmin group.  Click on the Account Manager icon.

       Online help is available for the dxaccounts application. To get help, click on any Help button or use the Help pull-down menu.

       Account Manager replaces the XSysAdmin(8) and XIsso(8) applications.

RESTRICTIONS

       You must have root privileges to modify system files with this application. If dxaccounts is run without root permission, you may view  but
       not modify account information.

       In order to make changes to the NIS databases, you must run Account Manager on the machine designated as the NIS server.
