Parameters 

ClientNodeName      is the client node name of the user profile you want
                    to change.

                    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 either the login name of the user on the client or
                    an asterisk (*).

                    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.  (For guidelines on
                    specifying session and group names in the server
                    login name, refer to "Setting Up ALLBASE/NET on the
                    Server" in the "Setting Up ALLBASE/NET" chapter.

                    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.

                    Refer to the ADD USER command for details on
                    wildcarding the client login name.

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

                    If you enter an asterisk, all client node names in
                    the NETUsers file that match the current client node
                    name are changed to the new client node name.

ServerLoginName     is the login name used on the server for the user
                    accessing the DBEnvironment.  You are prompted for
                    the server login name only if you enter the client
                    login name.

                    The MPE/iX server login name follows MPE/iX
                    naming conventions for a user 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.

                    Only one server login name is allowed for each client
                    node name and client login name combination.  When
                    possible, the server login name and the client login
                    name should be the same.  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
                    "Getting Started" chapter.

Examples 

In this example, one user profile is changed.  The client login name of
glen is replaced with charly.  The server login name is also changed.

In this example, multiple profiles are changed.  The client node name is
changed from cnode.cdomain.corg to cnode1.cdomain1.corg1.  First the
current value for the client node name is entered, then the new value is
entered.  Entering an asterisk (*) for the client login name, causes
all profiles in the NETUsers file having a client node name of
cnode.cdomain.corg to be changed to cnode1.cdomain1.corg1.

     netutil=> change user 
     Client Node Name/Session Type Name (current value): cnode.cdomain.corg 
     Client Node Name/Session Type Name (new value) (opt):cnode1.cdomain1.corg
