This chapter explains how you give users access to a system
by assigning user accounts and passwords. Descriptions are based
on the security needs of a commercial installation with average
security needs, where accounts require protection. Descriptions
of above-average security needs are also noted. Refer to
Controlling Access to System Data and Resources for information on controlling
access to system data and resources. See
Managing the System and Its Data and
Security Auditing for information on auditing user actions.
The Authorize utility (AUTHORIZE) is the primary tool for
establishing accounts and passwords. See the HP OpenVMS
System Management Utilities Reference Manual: A-L
for
a description of the utility.
