ADD USER 

Use the ADD USER command to add a user profile to the NETUsers file on
the server.  The first time you use this command to add a user profile,
the NETUsers file is created.  To display the contents of one or more
user profiles, use the SHOW USER command.

ADD USER can be abbreviated to AU.

To issue this command, you must log on as MANAGER.SYS, have SM
capability, or have AM capability for the account specified in the
command.

NETUtil Syntax 

     netutil=> ADD USER
     Client Node Name/Session Type Name: ClientNodeName 
     Client Login Name: ClientLoginName 
     Server Login Name: ServerLoginName 

Parameters 

ClientNodeName      is the node name of the client system.

                    It follows the node naming conventions of the
                    datacomm services used by the client node.  The
                    client node name is not case-sensitive and is stored
                    and displayed exactly as it was entered. 

ClientLoginName     is the login name of the user on the client.

                    The MPE/iX client login name follows MPE/iX
                    naming conventions for a login name and is not
                    case-sensitive.  The session name is not allowed and
                    the group name is required.

                    Any or all of the client user login name components
                    may be wildcarded using the "@".  When this is done,
                    only the non-wildcarded components need to match the
                    user's actual login.  For example, a client login
                    entry of @.acct7,group6 would allow any user in the
                    acct7 account and group6 group to have access to the
                    server login name.

                    If more than one client login name entry matches the
                    actual user's login, then the highest prioritized
                    match will be used in determining the server
                    login name.  Prioritization is as follows:  A
                    fully qualified entry has highest priority
                    (user7.acct3,group2).  A fully wildcarded entry has
                    the lowest priority (@.@,@).  When dealing with
                    individual components, an actual match for a specific
                    component takes priority over a wildcard match.  When
                    a conflict with this arises between different
                    components, then the account is prioritized first,
                    the user second, and finally the group.  For example,
                    @.acct3,@ would have a higher priority than
                    user2.@,group1, so the corresponding server login for
                    @.acct3,@ would be used.

                    The HP-UX client login name follows HP-UX naming
                    conventions for a login name, cannot exceed eight
                    characters in length, and is case-sensitive.  The
                    login can be wildcarded with the use of the "@"
                    symbol.

                    The client login name is stored and displayed exactly
                    as it was entered. 

ServerLoginName     is the login name used on the server for the user
                    accessing the DBEnvironment on the server.  This name
                    follows MPE/iX naming conventions for a login name
                    and is not case-sensitive.  The session and group
                    names are optional.  The server login name is stored
                    and displayed exactly as it was entered.  (For
                    guidelines on specifying session and group names in
                    the server login name, see "Assigning a Server Login
                    Name" under "Setting Up ALLBASE/NET on the Server" in
                    the "Setting Up ALLBASE/NET" chapter.)

                    The server login name allows the client node name and
                    the client login name to be mapped to a single login
                    on the server.  Only one server login name is allowed
                    for each client node name and client login name
                    combination.  When possible, the server login name
                    should be the same as the client login name.  This
                    avoids problems in some applications that make
                    assumptions about client and server logins.  Refer to
                    "Client and Server Login Names" under "Cross-System
                    Connectivity" in the "Setting Up ALLBASE/NET"
                    chapter.
