Creating a Repository User

The repository administrator is responsible for creating user accounts to enable users to connect to the repository and access the contents that they need.

Select Repository > Administration > Users to open the List of Users.
Click the Add a row tool, and type a name in the Full Name column.
Click the Properties button to open the property sheet of the user:
Enter the user login name and any other properties. The password is blank by default, and it is not necessary to set one at this time, but the password fields display eight stars.
Click OK.

Each repository user has the following properties:

Property	Description
Full Name	Specifies the real name of the user.
Login Name	Specifies the name used for logging in to the repository.
Comment	Specifies any additional information about the user
Email	Specifies the email address of the user
Password/ Confirm Password	Specifies the password of the user.
External	Specifies that authentication of the user is handled by an LDAP server (see Controlling Repository Access with LDAP). Selecting this check box disables the Full name, Email, and Password fields.
Deactivated	Specifies that the user is no longer active in the repository. The user remains in the List of Users and can be reactivated at any time. While he is deactivated, the user may not connect to the repository.

Note:

When you create a user, make sure you grant him/her access rights on the repository document either by inserting her into a group (see Inserting a user into a group), or directly (see Specifying a user's rights). If a user connects to the repository without access rights, he cannot see any document in the browser.
