Creating a template account on Windows servers / workstations
Bravura Security Fabric uses template accounts as models or "blueprints" for creating new accounts on Windows servers and workstations. This section describes how to create a Windows Server 2008 local template account (without Active Directory). See your Windows systems administrator or documentation for more information.
On the Windows server:
Select Start > All programs > Administrative Tools > Computer Management.
Select System Tools > Local Users and Groups.
Right click on the Users folder and select New User.
Type the template account’s User name, Password and Confirm password.
Set additional parameters as you require.
Click Create and then Close.
Note
It is recommended that you do not add template accounts to Bravura Security Fabric -managed groups. Managed group memberships should be handled by including them in roles.
Defining properties
By default, Bravura Security Fabric copies many properties (attributes) when creating a new user.
To define additional properties for the template account:
Open the Users folder and locate the template user.
Right click on the template account and select Properties.
Select the Profile tab and configure a user profile path, logon script name, or home directory path.
Configure other properties as you require.
Click OK to close the window.
Close the
window.
