Managing Users
There are three types of users in vFoglight:
• Internal. Internal users include the users that are created after the installation.
When you create an internal user in vFoglight, you assign a user name and
password to that user. There are restrictions surrounding password formatting.
See “Configuring Password Settings” on page 135 for details.
• Built In. Built-in users include the users that come with vFoglight. There is
currently one default account that is included with vFoglight. Unless you specify
a different user name at installation time, that user name is foglight. This account
has full access to all of vFoglight features
Note Built-in groups cannot be deleted.
• External. After being validated by vFoglight, external users are mapped from one
of the LDAP-compatible directory services supported by vFoglight (Active
Directory, Sun Java Systems Directory Server, and OpenLDAP). For more
information about configuring vFoglight to use an external directory service, see
“Configuring Directory Services” on page 139.
