| Description |
contains specific data relevant to each individual authorized user on the system.
Each user should have their own unique logon item-id in the "users" file. The tcl-stack item for each user uses the same item-id as the logon item-id in the "users" file. The simplest means of updating user items is to use the Update processor from the dm account, using the command u users item-id, where the item-id is a new or existing item-id in the "users" file. The attributes in the "user's" file are: 0 (item-id) Usually the users initials. 1 Name 2 Address 3 Zip 4 Phone 5 Unused 6 User's retrieval and update keys. See "retrieval locks". 7 Optional logon password(s). See "password". 8 Privilege level. See "system privileges". 9 User session options: a Updates accounting history file at logoff. c If this option is set, then any entry into the virtual debugger will comatize with a message indicating that the user should contact the system administrator. The administrator can then log the process off (with logoff) or let it continue (with the toggle.coma command). d Grants the user access to system debugger commands that display or modify virtual memory. g Do not allow user to fix or truncate any file inconsistencies encountered. i Indicates that the item-id of the tcl-stack accessed will be the same as the pib number. p Causes phantom processes initiated by this user-id to terminate and wrap up, rather than simply going to sleep when a GFE is encountered. r Restarts account logon procedure or macro on any <break>. t{"command"} Restarts account logon procedure on any attempt to go to TCL. An optional TCL command may be specified in quotes immediately after the "t" option to force execution of an alternate command in this situation. This TCL command may contain spaces and/or options, but cannot contain other double-quotes. 10 unused. 11 Unused 12 User logon macro. This is the same as a TCL macro without the macro type code, (in attribute 1) which is assumed to be 'n' (for "non-stop"). Any number of TCL commands may be placed on attributes 12 and beyond (multi-valued). Each command will be executed before the user is logged on. Typical logon commands might include "logto master.dictionary", "sp-assign form.queue", "brk-level", "bulletin.board" and so on. |

| Warnings | It is not adviseable to create a user-id of "+++" as it makes it difficult for someone to dial in on a modem. (Modems usually use "+++" as the attention string to regain control of the modem). |
