This is the README file for MKUSER.EXE which contains MAKEUSER.EXE Version 3.64 which replaces MAKEUSER.EXE v3.52 that ships with NNS v1.0 for NetWare v2.15C and above and NetWare v3.x. The following files are included for this revision: MAKEUSER.EXE 216951 01-14-93 1:27p MAKEUSER.HLP 7839 02-12-91 10:38p MKUSER.TXT this file Purpose: 1) MAKEUSER.EXE Version 3.64 supports NCP Packet Signature. 2) When creating users and assigning them to a default profile, earlier versions of MAKEUSER.EXE would give the user all rights (RWCEMF) to the default profile. This would allow the user to modify the profile login script and the profile's server list. The key words used in MAKEUSER.EXE are, #DEFAULT_PROFILE, and #CREATE. The members of a profile should only have "R"ead and "F"ile scan rights to the profile. MAKEUSER.EXE Version 3.64 fixes this problem. To install this utility: 1) Flag MAKEUSER.EXE AND MAKEUSER.HLP as SRW (Sharable Read Write) in the PUBLIC directory. 2) Rename MAKEUSER.EXE to MAKEUSER.OLD and MAKEUSER.HLP to MAKEUSER.OLP in the PUBLIC directory for backup purposes. 3) Copy MAKEUSER.EXE and MAKEUSER.HLP to the PUBLIC directory. 4) Flag the new copies of MAKEUSER.EXE AND MAKEUSER.HLP back to SRO (Sharable Read-Only). ***************************************************************** DISCLAIMER Novell, Inc. makes no representations or warranties with respect to any NetWare software, and specifically disclaims any express or implied warranties of merchantability, title, or fitness for a particular purpose.
