BusinessObjects Enterprise Administrator's Guide

Managing Enterprise and general accounts

Since Enterprise authentication is the default authentication method for BusinessObjects Enterprise, it is automatically enabled when you first install the system. When you add and manage users and groups, BusinessObjects Enterprise maintains the user and group information within its database.

This section focuses on the following account management tasks:

• Creating an Enterprise user account
• Modifying a user account
• Deleting a user account
• Changing password settings
• Creating a group
• Adding a user to groups
• Adding users to a group
• Modifying a group
• Viewing group members
• Deleting a group
• Disabling the Guest account
• Granting access to users and groups

Note:    In many cases, these procedures also apply to NT, LDAP, and AD account management. For specific information on NT authentication, see Managing NT accounts. For specific information on LDAP authentication, see Managing LDAP accounts. For specific information on AD authentication, see Managing AD accounts.
