Managing Security on UNIX

During a NerveCenter installation, the ncadmins and ncusers groups and the nervectr user, which is a member of ncadmins, are created. After installation, a NerveCenter administrator must add users to the appropriate groups.

Use the following guidelines when adding users to groups:

• Add NerveCenter administrators to the ncadmins group. See The Role of a NerveCenter Administrator.
• Add NerveCenter users to the ncusers group. NerveCenter users will only use the NerveCenter Client to monitor networks.
