6.6.1Defining a user

Xprint V7.0 allows the Xprint V7.0 administrator to grant privileges to users. For privileges to be granted, the users must be defined under Xprint V7.0. There are several different ways of doing this.

The user privileges can be defined while the user is being added. For a detailed description of the possible privileges, see the description of the xpadd -usrcommand in the “Xprint V7.0 - Reference Manual” as well as in the section “Modifying user privileges” on page 135.

●To add a new user to the Xprint V7.0 system, use the following command: xpadd -usr user_IDs [-ho hosts]

For user_IDs you can specify either a single user or a list of users. Now Xprint V7.0 knows the specified users and you can grant them specific privileges.

By additionally specifying a list of hosts with the -hohosts option you can allow users to access jobs they have submitted on one of these hosts from any other of the specified hosts.
