1.11 Create New User
Create a local user in this step. Administrating local users is a suitable option for
stand-alone workstations. If setting up a client on a network with centralized user
authentication, click Change and proceed with the Section 1.11.1, “Expert Settings”
(page 18).
After entering the rst name and last name, either accept the proposal or specify a
new Username that will be used to log in. Finally, enter a password for the user.
Reenter it for conrmation (to ensure that you did not type something else by mis-
take). To provide eective security, a password should be between ve and eight
characters long. The maximum length for a password is 72 characters. However, if
no special security modules are loaded, only the rst eight characters are used to
discern the password. Passwords are case-sensitive. Special characters (7-bit ASCII)
and the digits 0 to 9 are allowed. Other special characters like umlauts or accented
characters are not allowed.
Passwords you enter are checked for weakness. When entering a password that is
easy to guess (such as a dictionary word or a name) you will see a warning. It is a
good security practice to use strong passwords.
IMPORTANT: Username and Password
Remember both your username and the password because they are needed each
time you log in to the system.
