Setting up End-User Access Managing your NSS Users 5 Managing your NSS Users You can create, view, and maintain the list of users who can access the NSS. The Configured Users page displays the Configured Users table. This table lists each defined user whether the user was created locally via the NSS configuration interface or imported from an NTv4, Active Directory, or NIS domain. Note that users not created locally via the NSS are read-only with the exception of the email address field which you can update directly through the NSS Configuration Manager. Once a user profile is created, you cannot rename the username. To rename an existing user profile, delete the user profile and then create a new one. User profiles are maintained by the administrator. Users cannot make changes to their passwords.

The NSS configuration interface gives you read-only access to users provided by NTv4, Active Directory, or NIS domains (with the exception of being able to edit the email address). You can also create and manage local users from the NSS configuration interface. Before you can create a user profile, you must configure the volume you want to use as the home directory location for your users on the Access Options page (from the Manager Menu, click Access Options).
