Adding a Login to the System

Use the security configuration options to create a new login account.

Prerequisites

You must have administrative privileges (sccAdminRole) to perform this task.
If you intend to use Windows or UNIX to authenticate users, configure the appropriate authentication module.

Task

From the menu bar, select Application > Administration.
In the Sybase Control Center Properties dialog, expand the Security folder.
Select Logins.
Click Create Login.
Enter Login Name and Expiration for the new login. Expiration is optional.
Click Next.
Select Specify new user information.
Specify:
- Title
- First Name*
- M.I
- Last Name*
- Suffix
- Email Address*
- Phone
- Ext.
- Fax
- Mobile
*The First Name, Last Name, and Email Address are mandatory fields.
Click Finish.

Note: If you are using Simple Login as your predefined login module for authentication, the default login account, “sccadmin,” comes with a blank password. To change or modify the password, configure the csi.properties file as described in the Installation Guide.

Next

Grant privileges to the new login account. You can grant privileges by assigning Sybase Control Center roles directly to the login accounts, or by assigning the login accounts to groups and mapping Sybase Control Center roles to the groups. The group approach is generally more efficient.
