Working With Managed Users
See Chapter 6, “Client Management: Mac OS X,” and Chapter 10, “Client Management:
Mac OS 9 and OS 8,” for information about how you can make a user a managed user, which
lets you set up preferences for the user.
Defining a Guest User
You can set up some services to support users who are anonymous, that is, they can’t be
authenticated because they do not have a valid user name or password. The following
services can be set up this way:
m Windows services (see “Windows Services” on page 235 for information about configuring
guest access)
m Apple file service (see “Apple File Service” on page 224 for information about configuring
guest access)
m FTP service (see “File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Service” on page 244 for information about
configuring guest access)
m Web service (see Chapter 8, “Web Service,” for information about configuring guest
access)
Users who connect to a server anonymously are restricted to files, folders, and Web sites with
privileges set to Everyone.
Another kind of guest user is a managed user that you can define to allow easy setup of
public computers or kiosk computers. See Chapter 6, “Client Management: Mac OS X,” and
Chapter 10, “Client Management: Mac OS 9 and OS 8,” for more about these kinds of users.
Deleting a User Account
You can use Workgroup Manager to delete a user account stored in a NetInfo or LDAPv3
directory domain.
To delete a user account using Workgroup Manager:
1 In Workgroup Manager, open the user account you want to delete if it is not already open.
To open the account, click the Account button, then use the At pop-up menu to open the
directory domain where the account resides. Click the lock to be authenticated. Select the
user in the user list.
2 Choose Delete Selected User from the Server menu.
