Setting up the Native Registry
Native Registry is a combination of a User name and Password that is
entered for a user when they are created in Network Configuration Manager. The setup
of the
Native Registry
actually occurs at the time the user is
created. For more information, see
Create
a User
.
The User name/Password details are stored locally in Network Configuration Manager.
Actual changes to the User name/Password are completed by
editing
the
user
profile
.
The
details located within the Authentication Server module are for security
access settings only.
The number of failures can be designated so the user is locked out of
the system after entering the wrong user ID/password combination by a
set number of attempts. When a user is locked out of Network Configuration Manager
an
authorized user (such as the System Administrator) must go into the Edit
user feature, and unlock the users access.
