Account Type SSH Domain, Domain/Host | IBM Partner Pavilion 2.3

Option	Description

Account Type: SSH Local	Indicates that the user account is defined

	locally on a single Unix device that allows
	SSH logons. The account is used to attempt
	login to a single Unix device.
	When you choose this option, you must
	provide an IP address in the Domain/Host
	box.

Account Type: SSH Domain	Indicates that the user account is defined for

	Unix devices that allow SSH logons. In this
	context, ″Domain″ loosely refers to a set of
	devices, rather than to a specific type of
	domain. The account is used to attempt to
	log in to all SSH devices covered by the
	policy.
	When you choose this option, you should
	supply a descriptive name in the
	Domain/Host box. This is for
	documentation purposes only; it is not used
	by Enterprise Scanner.

Domain/Host	Applies to one of the following domains or
	hosts:
	v	For Windows accounts, the domain or
		host name to which the account applies.
	v For SSH Local accounts, the IP address of
		the device to which the account applies.
	v For SSH Domain accounts, any text.
Account Level	Applies to one of the following accounts:
	v	Administrator
	v	User
	v	Guest

Important: To avoid locking an account, do not add the account more than once.
