FAQ: How do I set-up Admin and User Accounts and Enable Security on the Vista:
Answer:
First, set up Administrator and User accounts:
- Create an administrative group and a user group in JOBS > USER MANAGER > CREATE GROUP.
2. Create admin accounts under the administrative group and create user accounts under the user group in JOB > USER MANAGER > CREATE USER.
3. Accounts in administrative groups can access to all features in Vista Essentials, and they can assign the access privileges to accounts in user groups as shown below:
4. The administrative user can delete groups, users, and reset passwords. When each user logs into the Vista, they must enter a name and password if ENABLE APPLICATION SECURITY is checked.
5. Next, Enable Security:
Security can be enabled on the Vista to ensure that operators cannot modify or delete folders or files and limit functionality. To enable security, go to JOBS > PREFERENCES >GENERAL and check ENABLE APPLICATION SECURITY.
Note: When the user selects the ENABLE APPLICATION SECURITY, they must have created admin/user accounts before logging out of Essentials. Otherwise, they will not be able to login Essentials again.
For convenience, the user can check the box under JOBS > PREFERENCES > GENERAL to use the LAST LOGIN CREDENTIALS. This eliminates the need for a username and password each time.
