[ templates/user-template.txt ] [ Version U1.2 6/93 ]
This file contains information for individual users and for Host Administrators
(HAs) who want to register their users in the WHOIS database maintained by the
DDN Network Information Center (DDN NIC) on the host NIC.DDN.MIL (192.112.36.5).
The user registration template below has been created to standardize the
registration procedure and help ensure that the DDN NIC will receive complete
information about each user in a format that can be processed quickly and
reliably by the registration software. You may retrieve the file from the
NIC via FTP. Simply log on with username "anonymous" and password "guest".
Then change to the templates directory and request the file by executing a
getfile procedure for filename user-template.txt at the prompt.
FOR MILITARY USERS ONLY:
It is important to note that ALL Host Administrators who will be authorizing
users for TAC access MUST be registered in the NIC database and be shown as
HA or alternate POC on the appropriate host record. MILNET gateway
administrators should ensure that their subhosts and subhost HAs are
registered and that the subhost HAs have been authorized to request TAC cards
before they submit user registrations to the NIC registrar for processing!
The file contains five sections, as follows:
A. General Instructions
B. Instructions for Individual Field Entries
C. Instructions for Submitting Registration Data
D. Sample Template
E. Blank Template (Use for Submission)
Section A below provides general instructions for filling out the user
templates. Acceptable formats and instructions for individual field
entries follow in Section B. PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
HOW TO FILL IN THE USER REGISTRATION TEMPLATE
A. General Instructions
NOTE: UPDATEs and DELETEs *always* require the entry of a NIC handle and
Last Name.
1. To ADD a new user record to the database, fill out all required fields
except for the handle, line U1. Required fields are marked with a
plus (+). Include in the non-required fields any additional information
that is applicable to the new user.
2. To MODIFY or UPDATE the record of an existing user, enter the
appropriate NIC handle and include data for the fields that
need to be changed. Enter "NONE" in any non-required field to
erase previous data.
U3A through U3D are grouped fields. Each of these fields are processed as
a whole. A change to any one field within the group requires entries of
all fields for the group. (i.e., entry in any field causes all fields in
the group to be updated from the template.)
3. To DELETE a user record from the database, enter the NIC handle (U1),
enter the name information (U2A and U2B), and enter "Y" in the "Delete
User?" field (U5A).
4. City, State, and Zip code information must be supplied for all
United States addresses. If the address is an APO or FPO address,
use the City field to specify the letters "APO" or "FPO" and use the
State field to enter the APO/FPO two-letter code.
5. Please note that NO USER is allowed more that one record in the NIC
database. Each user should be registered only on his/her primary or
"home" host.
B. Instructions for Individual Field Entries
+ U1. NIC Handle (See A2,3)......:
Required only for UPDATEs and DELETEs. DO NOT include a handle when you
are registering a new user. The NIC registration software automatically
generates a handle for all user records that are newly added to the database.
Example: RM64 (handle for NIC.DDN.MIL user)
NAME INFORMATION
+ U2A. Last Name..................:
+ U2B. First Name.................:
U2C. Middle Name or Initial.....:
U2D. Name Suffix................:
U2E. Title/Rank.................:
Both first and last names are required. We strongly suggest including a
middle name or initial, as that helps to eliminate duplication of names
in the database. Suffix line should include identifiers such as Jr., Sr.,
II, III, etc. A title or rank may be included.

U3I. Network Mailbox............:
+ U3J. Hostname...................:
Required. At least one line of address information is required. This
address should be the U.S. postal mailing address for any correspondence
directed to you. TAC users, in particular, should include an accurate
address, as addresses for mailing TAC cards are generated directly from
your template input. Enter as many lines as necessary, up to a maximum
of four.
Enter the city and the standard two-letter state abbreviation if your
host is located in the United States.
If you have an APO/FPO address, enter only the two-letter APO/FPO
code in line U3F (i.e., AE for New York, AP for California, AA for
Florida).
The zip code entry is REQUIRED for APO/FPO and U.S. mailing addresses.
Please supply a nine-digit zip code for APO/FPO addresses; you may enter
either a five or nine-digit zip for other U.S. addresses.
U3H. Country....................:
If you have an APO/FPO address, enter US for country. If not, enter
the country only if it is OCONUS and must appear in your mailing address.
U3I. Network Mailbox............:
Enter the Fully Qualified Domain Name (full hostname). Separate the
username and hostname parts of the mailbox by "@". Otherwise, follow
the syntax required for routing mail to your network.
+ U3J. Hostname...................:
This is the name of your "home" host. Enter the full hostname, not
the numeric host address.

phone number, you must provide your DSN phone number. Other numbers may
also be listed. Please include DSN or Fax numbers.
USER STATUS
U5A. Delete User? (See A.3)[Y/N]:
This field is used to permanently remove a user's record from the WHOIS
database. Do not answer "Y" if the user is moving to another host. The
default is N.
+ U5B. TAC Card Required? [Y/N]...:
Enter a Y or N following the colon to indicate if a TAC Access Card is
required.
TAC Card requests may be submitted to the NIC only by authorized gateway
or host administrators.
C. Instructions for Submitting Registration Data
Please forward all user registration data directly to "REGISTRAR@NIC.DDN.MIL".
You may address questions to the same mailbox or you may call the NIC Help
Desk at 1-800-365-DNIC for assistance. All submissions will be acknowledged
on receipt. User registrations will be processed within eight working days
of receipt if all data is properly formatted and there are no problems with
the information you have supplied.
If you do not have access to electronic mail facilities, you may submit
hardcopy applications to the following address:
Network Information Center
14200 Park Meadow Drive
ATTN: Registrar, Suite 200
Chantilly, VA 22021
Because hardcopy registrations require manual input, this method of
transmission is strongly discouraged!
The following section consists of a sample template with data entered in
the required format. A blank user template concludes the file.
