	Principal Attributes
	You must assign attributes to each principal to control the usage and
	rights of the account. This section describes the possible attributes and
	the default settings.
	Setting the Default Group Principal Attributes
	Before adding principals to the database, you must review the attributes
	and properties assigned to the default group principal, default@REALM,
	and establish a set of base attributes for the principal. This default group
	principal acts as a template, and when the new principals are created,
	they inherit the attributes of the default principal.
NOTE	Modifying the default group principal does not update the attributes of
	existing principals. Therefore, you must consider the assigned attributes
	before you begin adding principals.
	Default Principal Attributes
	When you create a realm in a database, the default@REALM principal is
	automatically created. Every realm contains one default principal that
	controls the settings for the default group.
