User Accounts
User Accounts let you create NT LAN manager (NTLM) user accounts to
authenticate client connections when using the FTP, web, and file servers. A
user account consists of a user name and a password.
To add a user account, follow these steps.
1. Double-click User Accounts in the control panel.
2. In the user name field, type a name.
3. To clear the field and type a password, click in the Password field.
Asterisks display as you type the password.
4. Reenter the password in the Confirm pwd field.
5. Click Add User.
6. Click OK to acknowledge the new user account.
The new user name is added to the list.
TIP NTLM is the security protocol that provides authentication, integrity, and
confidentiality to users on Windows operating systems. NTLM is still
included to support Windows 2000, 2002, and 2003 server systems.
