/cfg/sys/user followed by:

edit <username>	Accesses the User <username> menu, in order
	change user settings (see “Managing user settings
	using the CLI” on page 358).
	You must have administrator rights in order to change a
	user’s settings. You must also be a member of the first
	group listed for the other user.
caphrase	Sets the certificate administrator’s passphrase for
	encrypted private keys in a configuration backup, if the
	certificate administrator role has been separated from
	the administrator role.
	If the admin user is a member of the certadmin group
	(the default setting), the admin user is prompted for an
	export passphrase to protect the private keys in the
	configuration dump each time the /cfg/ptcfg
	command is used.
	Set a certificate administrator export passphrase only if
	the admin user has removed himself or herself from the
	certadmin group and added a certificate administrator
	user with certadmin group rights. When a configuration
	backup is performed using the /cfg/ptcfg
	command, the certadmin export passphrase is
	automatically used (without prompting the user) to
	protect the encrypted private keys. When the
	/cfg/gtcfg command is used to restore a
	configuration backup from a file exchange server, the
	user is prompted for the correct certadmin passphrase,
	as defined using the caphrase command.
	Note: The caphrase menu command is displayed
	only when the logged on user is a member of the
	certadmin group.

Managing user settings using the CLI

You must have administrator rights in order to change a user’s settings. You must also be a member of the other user’s first group (the first group listed for the other user when you use the /cfg/sys/user/edit <username>/groups/list command).
