Page 1 of 1 SUPERVISOR STATION RESTRICTION HELP Station restrictions are enforced on the supervisor account. If you accidently list invalid addresses in the list of addresses where the supervisor is allowed to login from, the supervisor could never login again. To help prevent you from making this mistake, SYSCON has check to see that you can at least login from the station that you are on right now. Check the addresses that you entered to make sure they are correct. If they are incorrect then delete the incorrect entries and reenter them. If they are correct, but this station is not included then you must either delete all the entries or add this station temporarily, and then go to one of the stations that you are going to allow the supervisor to login from and correct the list. Page 1 of 1 FULL NAME HELP No full name has been defined for the selected user or group. (Only the supervisor can define a full name.) Page 1 of 1 USER ALREADY EXISTS HELP The user was not added because a user by that name already exists on the file server. Each user on the file server must have a unique name. Page 1 of 1 THE SUPERVISOR CANNOT BE DELETED HELP The SUPERVISOR is a special user who cannot be deleted. Page 1 of 1 THE SUPERVISOR CANNOT BE RENAMED HELP The SUPERVISOR is a special user who cannot be renamed. Page 1 of 1 LOG IN TO SERVER HELP You cannot log in to an additional file server because your station is already attached to 8 servers. (A station cannot be logged in to more than 8 servers simultaneously.) You must log out from one of the servers to which you are currently logged in before you can log in to any other servers. Page 1 of 1 ACCOUNTING NOT SUPPORTED HELP The version of Advanced NetWare that is running on this file server does not support the accounting features. If you need to use accounting features on this server you should upgrade to a version of Advanced NetWare that supports these features. Page 1 of 1 ACCOUNTING WRONG VERSION This version of SYSCON does not support the version of accounting that this file server is running. You have probably run an incorrect version of SYSCON. Check to make sure that you ran the version of SYSCON that came with your file server software. Page 1 of 1 ACCOUNTING NOT INSTALLED HELP Accounting has not been installed on this file server. A user must have SUPERVISOR privileges in order to install accounting. Page 1 of 1 FILE SERVER CAN NOT CHARGE HELP The file server has been removed from the list of authorized accounting servers. It can not charge users for any file service or disk storage service unless its name appears in the list of authorized accounting servers. If you want the file server to charge for a service, select the Accounting Servers option and press INSERT to authorize the file server to charge for its services. Page 1 of 1 USER IS ALREADY A TRUSTEE HELP You were unable to add the selected user or group as a trustee in the directory, because the user or group is already a trustee in the directory. You may, however, change the user or group's trustee rights in the directory. To do so, highlight the name of the directory in which the user or group is a trustee, then press the MODIFY key. Page 1 of 1 THE SPECIFIED VOLUME DOES NOT EXIST HELP The trustee was not added because a nonexistent volume was specified in the directory path. To list the file server's existing volumes, use the BACKSPACE key to erase the directory path, then press the INSERT key. Page 1 of 1 ADD TRUSTEE HELP The file server will not let you add the trustee to the directory because you entered an incorrect directory path. A directory path consists of a volume name, followed by a colon, followed by a list of directory names. Directory names must be separated by a slash (/) or a backslash (\), and may be up to 14 characters long. An example of a valid directory path is WORK:JOHN/DOCUMENTS. You may press the INSERT key to list all the subdirectories of the path that you have entered. Page 1 of 1 CREATE NEW USER HELP Normally when a user is created, they are automatically added to the group EVERYONE. An error occurred while attempting to add the new user to the group EVERYONE. This error probably occurred because the group EVERYONE has been deleted. Page 1 of 1 ADD GROUP HELP The group was not added because a group by that name already exists on the file server. Each group on a file server must have a unique name. Page 1 of 1 READ LOGIN SCRIPT FOR USER HELP Because you have supervisor privileges, you can read the login script of users other than the currently selected user. To access another user's login script, use the BACKSPACE key to delete the current user's name, then either type the name of the user whose login script you wish to view, or press the INSERT key to list the available users, and select one. Page 1 of 1 USER LOGIN SCRIPT HELP The user login script specifies the actions that will occur when the current user logs in. The commands in the user login script are executed after the commands in the system login script. A default login script is run for users who do not have a login script created specifically for their usernames. WHEN YOU SAVE A LOGIN SCRIPT IN SYSCON, IT OVERRIDES YOUR DEFAULT SCRIPT. DO NOT SAVE AN INCORRECT LOGIN SCRIPT IN SYSCON, OR YOUR STATION WILL NOT HAVE SEARCH DRIVES MAPPED CORRECTLY WHEN YOU LOG IN TO THE SYSTEM. If you delete the entire login script and save it (spaces and carriage returns must all be deleted also) then the default login script will be used again. For a detailed explanation of how to create and modify your own login script, see Appendix A of the Menu Utilities manual.

Page 4 of 6 EXPLANATION OF LOGIN SCRIPT IDENTIFIERS Identifiers are predefined symbols recognized by LOGIN. They represent textual information that is variable. For example, the identifier DAY_OF_WEEK represents the literal string "Monday," "Tuesday," or whatever the current day is. Identifiers may be displayed (see WRITE command), or may be used in comparisons (see IF...THEN command). Identifiers preceded by a percent (%) sign will be replaced by their corresponding text value. They may appear anywhere in the login script, like command-line parameters. Notice that identifiers MUST be in ALL CAPITALS. See the following screen for a list of identifiers. Page 5 of 6 LOGIN SCRIPT IDENTIFIERS Identifier Text Value Identifier Text Value HOUR 1 to 12 LOGIN_NAME User's login name HOUR24 00 to 23 FULL_NAME User's full name MINUTE 00 to 59 STATION Station number SECOND 00 TO 59 GREETING_TIME Morning, Afternoon, or Evening AM_PM am or pm NEW_MAIL Yes or No MONTH 01 to 12 OS MS DOS MONTH_NAME June, May, etc. OS_VERSION V2.11 or V3.00 DAY 01 to 31 MACHINE IBM PC,Victor 9000,etc. YEAR 1983, 2016, etc. SHELL_TYPE Shell type number SHORT_YEAR 83, 16, etc. P_STATION Physical station number DAY_OF_WEEK Monday, Tuesday, SMACHINE Short machine name etc. NDAY OF WEEK 1 to 7 (1=Monday) Page 6 of 6 LOGIN SCRIPT HELP This menu lists the file server users.

To do so, use the BACKSPACE key to delete the highlighted user's name from the Read Login Script for User entry box. Then, to assign the login script to another user, either type that user's name, or press the INSERT key to list the file server users and select one from the list. Page 1 of 1 SYSTEM LOGIN SCRIPT HELP The system login script specifies actions that will occur for all users when they log in. The commands in the system login script are executed before the commands in the individual user's login script. A default login script is run for users who do not have a login script created specifically for their usernames. For a detailed explanation of how to create and modify your own login script, see Appendix A of the Menu Utilities manual.

Page 1 of 1 NO OTHER ACCOUNTING SERVERS HELP In order for a server to be authorized to charge for its services, it must have an account on this file server that it logs into. SYSCON knows about server accounts for Job Servers, Gateways, Print Servers, Archive Servers, SNA Gateways, and Remote Bridges. There are no accounts for any of these servers that have not been given authorization to charge for their services. Page 1 of 1 MORE THAN 20 CHARGE CHANGES HELP The method that the file server uses, to store what amounts are being charged during what time of the day, allows a maximum of 20 times when the charge rate changes. One entry can change the rate to a new value for one or more days. For instance one entry can change the charge for connection time to 1/30 at 8:00am on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. It takes another entry to change the rate to 1/50 at 8:00am on Tuesday. Each time of the day that a rate change occurs uses at least one entry and it will use more than one entry if there is a change for more than one day and the charge rate is not the same. Consolidate the rate changes you have made so that it does not take more than 20 entries to store the rate changes. Page 1 of 1 MORE THAN 20 DISK CHARGE ENTRIES HELP The method that the file server uses, to store when disk storage space should be charged for and the rate that should be used, allows a maximum of 20 entries when disk storage space can be charged for. One entry can charge a specific rate at a certain time on one or more days. For instance one entry can charge for 1/50 per block-day of disk storage space at 2:00am on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. It takes another entry to charge the rate to 1/50 at 2:00am on Tuesday. Each time of the day that a change occurs uses at least one entry and it will use more than one entry if there is a different charge rate for the same time period on other days of the week. Consolidate the times and rates that are being charged for disk storage so that it does not take more than 20 entries to store the charge times.

If this field is set to YES, the user's password will expire periodically and he will be asked to change the password. If this field is set to NO, the user's password will never expire. DAYS BETWEEN FORCED CHANGES If the FORCE PERIODIC PASSWORD CHANGES field is set to YES then this field contains the number of days the user can use a password before the password expires. Page 4 of 8jc DEFAULT RESTRICTIONS HELP LIMIT GRACE LOGINS If the FORCE PERIODIC PASSWORD CHANGES field is set to YES then this field indicates whether the user is forced to change the password, or if an expired password is simply a reminder to change to a new password. If this field is set to YES then the user has a limited number of chances to change the password. If the user does not change the password within the specified limit he will no longer be able to login. If this field is set to NO then the user will not be required to change the password when it expires. GRACE LOGINS ALLOWED If the LIMIT GRACE LOGINS field is set to YES then this field indicates the number of chances the user gets to change his password when it is expired.

Page 6 of 8 DEFAULT RESTRICTIONS HELP ACCOUNT BALANCE If accounting is supported by the selected file server then this field will specify the account balance that should be given to a new user when his account is first created. ALLOW UNLIMITED CREDIT If accounting is supported by the selected file server then this field indicates whether a new user will be given unlimited credit when his account is first created. If this field is set to YES the user will be never be denied services because of insufficient account funds. If it is set to NO the user will be denied services if his account balance drops below the low balance limit. Page 7 of 8 DEFAULT RESTRICTIONS HELP LOW BALANCE LIMIT If accounting is supported by the selected file server, and ALLOW UNLIMITED CREDIT is set to NO then this field indicates the lowest balance the user can have and still receive services that are being charged for. If the users account balance drops below the low balance limit the user will be denied any additional services that are being charged for. Page 8 of 8 ACCOUNT BALANCE HELP This form shows the user's current account balance and the user's credit limit. The account balance is the amount of funds that the user currently has. Each time the user is charged for a service his account balance is decremented. The credit limit determines how low the user's account balance can drop before he will no longer receive services that are being charged for. If the user is given unlimited credit then he will always be given services and the account balance will only serve as an indicator of how much service the user is receiving. If the user has limited credit then when the account balance falls below the specified credit limit the user will not longer receive services that are being charged for. A credit limit of 0 means the user can not receive any further services when his account balance drops below zero. A negative credit limit means the user's account is allowed to go in the hole, until it reaches the credit limit. A positiive credit limit means the user is required to the specified amount of funds in his account at all times.

When you have made your selection press the SELECT key or the ESCAPE key. If you have made changes to this setting and do not want to save the changes, press the CANCEL key and then the ESCAPE key. If a user account is given unlimited credit, the user will continue to reveive services no matter how low his account balance falls. If a user does not have unlimited credit, then you specify the exact amount of credit that the user should be given. If the users account balance drops below the defined credit limit, the user will no longer receive services for which there is a charge. Page 1 of 1 CREDIT LIMIT HELP Enter the credit limit for the user. When you are finished, press the SELECT key or the ESCAPE key. If you have changed this setting and do not want to save the changes, press the CANCEL key and then the ESCAPE key.

DETECT INTRUDERS If this option is set to YES then the file server will record repeated attempts to login to an account with an invalid password. If this option is set to NO the file server will not detect intruders. Page 1 of xO INTRUDER DETECTION/LOCKOUT HELP INCORRECT LOGIN ATTEMPTS This entry is used by the file server to determine the when an intruder is attempting to break into an account and when a user mistyped his password. The file server tracks the number of incorrect login attempts that occur for each user account. It resets the number of incorrect logins for an account whenever the user successfully logs into the file server or when the the BAD LOGIN COUNT RETENTION TIME has past since the last bad login. If the number of incorrect logins for a user reaches the number entered in the INCORRECT LOGIN ATTEMPTS field then the file server will "detect" an intruder. When an intruder is detected a entry is placed in the audit file and the file server error log file indicating the address of the intruder and the account he was attempting to log into. In addition the account the intruder was attempting to log into can be locked. Page 2 of x INTRUDER DETECTION/LOCKOUT HELP BAD LOGIN COUNT RETENTION TIME This field indicates the amount of time, after an incorrect login attempt occurred, that must pass before the bad login attempt is forgotten by the file server. Bad login attempts are immediately forgotten if the user logs in successfully. Otherwise the number of bad login counts is remembered until it reaches the limit specified in the INCORRECT LOGIN ATTEMPTS field, or the amount of time specified in the BAD LOGIN COUNT RETENTION TIME has past. Page 3 of xQ INTRUDER DETECTION/LOCKOUT HELP LOCK ACCOUNT AFTER DETECTION This field allows you to specify if the file server should lock an account that an intruder is attempting to log into. If this field is set to YES then the file server will lock the account when an intruder is detected in addition to generating a note in the audit file and in the system error log file. If this field is set to NO then a note indicating that an intruder was detected will be generated, but the account will not be locked. If an account is locked then no-one can login to the account for the length of time specified in the LENGTH OF ACCOUNT LOCKOUT field. This is intended to make it impossible to login by trying to guess a password. The account can be unlocked before the specified time has past by any supervisor equilivant station using SYSCON. In addition the supervisor's account can be unlocked from the file server console by typing ENABLE LOGIN. Page 4 of x INTRUDER DETECTION/LOCKOUT HELP LENGTH OF ACCOUNT LOCKOUT If the LOCK ACCOUNT AFTER DETECTION option is set to YES then this field specifies the amount of time that the account should be locked.

GRACE LOGINS ALLOWED If the LIMIT GRACE LOGINS field is set to YES then this field indicates the number of chances the user gets to change his password when it is expired. If the user does not change the password within the specified number of logins then he will not be allowed to login. Page 8 of 11 ACCOUNT RESTRICTIONS HELP REMAINING GRACE LOGINS If the LIMIT GRACE LOGINS field is set to YES then this field shows the remaining number of time that the user can login using an expired password. When this number reaches zero the user will not be allowed to login again until the SUPERVISOR gives the user more grace logins, or changes the password expiration date so that the password is not expired. This field is automatically reset to the value in GRACE LOGINS ALLOWED each time the password is changed. Page 9 of 11 ACCOUNT RESTRICTIONS HELP REQUIRE UNIQUE PASSWORDS If the REQUIRE PASSWORD field is set to YES then this field indicates whether the user should be forced to use a different password each time the password is changed.

Page 10 of 11 ACCOUNT RESTRICTIONS HELP LIMIT DISK SPACE This option will only appear if the option to track the amount of disk space a user is using was selected during the file server installation. If this field is set to NO, the user can use as much disk space as there is available. If this option is set to YES then the MAXIMUM DISK SPACE field specifies the maximum amount of disk space that the user can use on the file server. MAXIMUM DISK SPACE If the LIMIT DISK SPACE OPTION is set to YES then this field specifies the maximum amount of disk space the user can use. Since disk space is allocated in blocks of 4K (4096 bytes) this field is used to specify how many blocks a user can allocate. Note that a files size must be rounded up to the next 4K boundry when determining the amount of disk space it is using. Page 11 of 11 LENGTH OF ACCOUNT LOCKOUT HELP The LENGTH OF ACCOUNT LOCKOUT field is used to specify how long an account should be locked if an intruder is trying to break into the account.

Page 1 of 1 ACCOUNT BALANCE HELP This form shows the user's current account balance and the user's credit limit. The account balance is the amount of funds that the user currently has. Each time the user is charged for a service his account balance is decremented. The credit limit determines how low the user's account balance can drop before he will no longer receive services that are being charged for. If the user is given unlimited credit then he will always be given services and the account balance will only serve as an indicator of how much service the user is receiving. If the user has limited credit then when the account balance falls below the specified credit limit the user will not longer receive services that are being charged for. A credit limit of 0 means the user can not receive any further services when his account balance drops below zero. A negative credit limit means the user's account is allowed to go in the hole, until it reaches the credit limit. A positiive credit limit means the user is required to the specified amount of funds in his account at all times.
