Hello everyone,
I would like to create a user that is not as powerful as admin on a context. I basically want an account that can create users, delete users, and change passwords. How can I set this up in Netware 5.1 ? I am new to NDS so I am stilllearning.
Thanks,
Martin Reyes

1. In NWAdmn32, right-click on the context of users you want the password administrator to be in-charge of.
2. Select "Trustees of this Object...".
3. Select "Add Trustee" andselect the user that you want to be the password administrator.
4. Click on the "Selected properties:" radio button.
5. Scroll down the list till you reach the "Password Management" ACL.
6. Select Supervisor, Compare, Read, Write and Inheritablefor that ACL. (Also make sure the Inheritable right is enabled for object rights as well.)
7. Click "OK" when done.

TID explains how to create a helpdesk operator forpassword management. In the selected properties scroll down you can also assign additional rights that you want your non admin person to do.

Good Luck.
