<para>This tool<footnote>
<para>You can start this tool from the command line, by typing <emphasis
role="bold">userdrake</emphasis> as root.</para>
</footnote> is found under the <emphasis
role="bold">System</emphasis> tab in the Mageia Control Center labelled
"Manage users on system"</para>
<para>The tool allows an administrator to manage the users and the groups, this
means to add or delete a user or group and to modify user and group settings
(ID, shell, ...)</para>
<para>When userdrake is opened, all the users existing on the system are listed in
the <guibutton>Users</guibutton> tab, and all the groups in the
<guibutton>Groups</guibutton> tab. Both tabs operate the same way.</para>
<para><guibutton>1 Add User</guibutton></para>
<para>This button opens a new window with all fields shown empty:</para>
<mediaobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="userdrake1.png"/>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
<para>The field <emphasis role="bold">Full Name</emphasis> is intended for the
entry of a family name and first name, but it is possible to write anything
or nothing as well!</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Login</emphasis> is the only required field.</para>
<para>Setting a <emphasis role="bold">Password</emphasis> is highly
recommended. There is a little shield on the right, if it is red, the
password is weak, too short or is too similar to the login name. You should
use figures, lower and upper case characters, punctuation marks, etc. The
shield will turn orange and then green as the password strength improves.</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Confirm Password</emphasis> field is there to ensure
you entered what you intended to.</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Login Shell </emphasis>is a drop down list that allows
you to change the shell used by the user you are adding, the options are
Bash, Dash and Sh.</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Create a private group for the user</emphasis>, if
checked will automatically create a group with the same name and the new
user as the only member (this may be edited).</para>
<para>The other options should be obvious. The new user is created immediately
after you click on <guibutton>OK</guibutton>.</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">2 Add Group</emphasis></para>
<para>You only need to enter the new group name, and if required, the specific
group ID.</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">3 Edit</emphasis> (a selected user)</para>
<para><guibutton>User Data</guibutton>: Allows you to modify all the data given
for the user at creation (the ID can't be changed).</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Account Info</emphasis>:</para>
<mediaobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="userdrake2.png"/>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
<para>The first option is for setting an expiration date for the account.
Connection is impossible after this date. This is useful for temporary
accounts.</para>
<para>The second option is to lock the account, connection is impossible as long
as the account is locked.</para>
<para>It is also possible to change the icon.</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Password Info</emphasis>: Allows you to set an
expiration date for the password, this forces the user to change his
password periodically.</para>
<mediaobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="userdrake3.png"/>
</imageobject>
</mediaobject>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Group</emphasis>: Here you can select the groups that
the user is a member of.</para>
<note>
<para>If you are modifying a connected user account, modifications will not be
effective until his/her next login.</para>
</note>
<para><emphasis role="bold">4 Edit</emphasis> (with a group selected)</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Group Data</emphasis>: Allows you to modify the group
name.</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">Group Users</emphasis>: Here you can select the users
who are members of the group</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">5 Delete</emphasis></para>
<para>Select a user or a group and click on <emphasis
role="bold">Delete</emphasis> to remove it. For a user, a window appears to
ask if home directory and mailbox must also be deleted. If a private group
has been created for the user, it will be deleted as well.</para>
<warning>
<para>It is possible to delete a group which is not empty.</para>
</warning>
<para><emphasis role="bold">6 Refresh</emphasis></para>
<para>The User database can be changed outside of Userdrake. Click on this icon to
refresh the display.</para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">7 Guest Account</emphasis></para>
<para><emphasis role="bold">guest</emphasis> is a special account. It is intended
to give somebody temporary access to the system with total security. Login
is xguest, there is no password, and it is impossible to make modifications
to the system from this account. The personal directories are deleted at the
end of the session. This account is enabled by default, to disable it, click
in the menu on<guimenu> Actions -> Uninstall guest account</guimenu>.</para>
