Creating a Private (non-OS) User

A Private User is an EnterpriseSCHEDULE user with no OS based user properties. It can be used to access EnterpriseSCHEDULE without being a user in the environment of the server.

To enable the private user settings, edit the parameter file:

Windows

C:\Program Files(x86)\ISE\EnterpriseSCHEDULE\sch0_parameter.dat

UNIX/Linux

/schedule_library/sch0_parameter.dat

OpenVMS

schedule_library:sch0_parameter.dat

on the server and add the following parameter:

AUTHENTICATION_METHOD = 1

There is also the ability to set this parameter to "2" to use user authentication through a script/program, for example oracle authentication. This method needs the setting of another parameter

PSWD_AUTHORIZE_FILE =

These 2 methods still allow OS users to connect to EnterpriseSCHEDULE.

The server process will need to be restarted to make the changes

To create the private user in the syscontrol directory

1. Right click in the syscontrol directory and select New
2. Give the Private User a Name
3. Right click on the new user record and select Properties
4. Enter a new password
5. Select Schedule only as the user type
