Changing Administrator IDs in DirectConnect Manager

(CR390680 & CR 390830) The ability to add, delete and alter administrator user ids to DirectConnect from DirectConnect Manager has been added to DirectConnect Manager 12.6.1.Sybase recommends that for directed DirectConnect servers, the administrator user IDs and passwords must be consistent between the Director and its directed DirectConnect servers. If not consistent, the login information must be entered repeatedly for each server as they access it. While this is feasible and works well it may become cumbersome and reduce the value of using the DCDirector. If you choose to use different UID/PWD combinations across servers, you can save this information on your local machine by selecting the permanent connection option on the login dialog box. This may reduce the impact of using different UID/PWD combinations somewhat but it reduces security.

NoteIf DirectConnect Manager 12.6.1 is used with pre-12.6.1 DirectConnect servers, the ability to alter an administrator properties has been disabled. To alter the properties of the administrator in a pre-12.6.1 DirectConnect server, the administrator user ID must be dropped and re-entered with the proper property values.
