Displaying the Groups & users list

Displaying the Groups & users list

The Content Server has one predefined user - the local administrator with the default password TANDBERG. We strongly recommend that you change this password - see Changing the local administrator account password. Users can access the Content Server either as a guest - without the need to log in (if this is allowed in Site settings) or by logging in (authenticating). To understand more about groups and users, see Understanding groups & users.

Displaying the Groups & users list

To display the list of current groups and users, go to Management settings > Groups and users. When the list opens, it shows both groups and users alphabetically by name. The icon for an entry

tells you whether it is a group or a user . You can display only groups or only users with the Show drop-down list.

From the Groups & users list a site manager can:

Edit a group or user by clicking Edit. See Adding & updating groups & users.

Delete groups and users: select the group or user and click Delete selected. You cannot delete the local administrator or the user you are logged in as.

Add a new group or user by clicking Add groups or users. Whether you need to do this manually depends on a number of factors - see Understanding groups & users. Then for instructions, see Adding & updating groups & users.
