Enabling or disabling a user account

The user interface automatically disables a user account after five consecutive failed login attempts. The administrative user can also manually disable a user account to prevent a user from logging on to the system. If a user account is disabled, the user is unable to log in until an administrative user manually enables the account.

Use this procedure to enable or disable a user account:

  1. Select Administration > Users.

    The Users administration page appears.

  2. Select a Username from the listing.
  3. Select Edit.

    The Edit Users page appears.

  4. Click the Account Enabled checkbox to enable/disable the account. A check mark indicates that the account is enabled.
  5. Click Ok.

    The account is enabled/disabled as selected.
