When you log into the console with a user name other than admin, you can manage your own user account. You do not have access to other user account features.
This section includes the procedure to change your password. After logging in, you can open the User Editor of your own account and change the password.
The first time that any user logs into the console, Sun Update Connection – Enterprise automatically opens the Change Password window, enabling you to give your account a password that is private even from the admin user who created the account.
Type and verify a new password for this user account and then click OK. The change takes effect immediately.
If the Change Password window does not open automatically on the first login, the default behavior of Sun Update Connection – Enterprise has been changed. See DM Preferences – Clients.
The following table identifies the tasks that you might perform when you want to manage your own account.
