an employee’s office location) or keywords that will help you find users.

Allowing Multiple Logins for Users
Ordinarily, users must log out on one computer before they can log in on another. However,
you may want to allow certain users, such as technical support staff or administrators, to log
in on several computers simultaneously (to do maintenance tasks, for example).
To allow simultaneous logins:
1
In Macintosh Manager, click Users, and then click Advanced.
2
Select a user from the Imported Users list.
3
Deselect “User can only log in at one computer at a time.”
4
Click Save.
Granting a User System Access
Users who have system access can access all items on a client computer, including the Finder
and the System Folder. Grant system access to specific users, such as workgroup
administrators or technical support staff, only if necessary. Macintosh Manager administrators
always have system access.
To allow system access for a user:
1
In Macintosh Manager, click Users, and then click Advanced.
2
Select a regular user or workgroup administrator in the Imported Users list.
3
Select “User has system access.”
4
Click Save.
Changing Advanced Settings
Depending upon the user type, some advanced settings may or may not be available. Also,
workgroup administrators cannot change access settings, email settings, or user type.
To change advanced settings for a user:
1
In Macintosh Manager, click Users, and then click Advanced.
2
Select the user or users you want to modify in the Imported Users list.
You can select multiple users, but they should be of the same type. If you select different
types of users, you will be able to modify only the advanced settings that those users have
in common.
