Viewing Users

The users currently existing on the Node can be viewed on the Users tab of the Security screen displayed by following the Security link on the Infrastructure Manager menu. There are two default subtabs on this screen allowing you to list the users from two databases (these databases are automatically created on the Hardware Node during the Virtuozzo Containers installation):

The Parallels Internal subtab: this database contains Parallels-specific users created during the Virtuozzo Containers installation and all users that you have manually created in Infrastructure Manager.
The System subtab: this database is fully identical to the system database created by any operating system on any computer. It contains the information on the users registered in the Host OS and defines the rights these users have in respect of the system administration.

The information on users is presented in the table having the following columns:

Name	Description
Login	The name used to log in to Infrastructure Manager.
Full Name	The full name of the user.
Distinguished name	The distinguished name assigned to the user and uniquely identifying this user among other users in the LDAP-compliant database. This column is relevant only for users from external authentication databases .
EMail	The user's valid email address.
Description	A short description of the user.

Warning! If the users from an external authentication database are not listed on this tab, chances are the objectClass=user attribute is not set for the users in this database. Make sure all the database users have this attribute set for these users to be listed on the Users tab of Infrastructure Manager.

To facilitate your working with users, you can:

Filter them by the parameters listed in the table above (e.g. by their full names or emails). To this effect, click the Show Search link over the table, enter the needed data in the field(s) provided and click Search . The users matching the specified criteria will be displayed in the Users table on the Security screen. To have the full list of users back, click Reset Results .
Change the users order by clicking the corresponding column name in the Users table.
Modify the number of users simultaneously displayed in the Users table on the Security screen by clicking the 10 , 20 , 40 , or 80 link at the top of the table.

The Users tab also allows you to:

Remove an existing user by selecting the check box near the corresponding user and clicking the Delete button. When deleting users, please keep in mind that you cannot remove built-in users (i.e. any of the users displayed on the System subtab).
Create a new user by following the New User link at the top of the Users table.
