Reset a user after lockout

If a user forgets his or her username or password and challenge question, that user can
be locked out of the system. If a user has been locked out for login failures, they can
unlock themselves by answering their challenge question via the Login form’s Challenge
Dialog window

Figure 69: User Account Challenge Dialog Window

If a user cannot remember his/her challenge question, a call to the Administrator is
necessary to reset the account. Follow the instructions in Initial Login section.

Group management

The Advanced Permission Model (on the TruVision Navigator Server Properties dialog)
allows you to utilize groups within TruVision Navigator. Groups allow you to scale user
permissions in your system across many users. For instance, many users can be placed
into a single group, and that single group can be assigned permissions against the
folders/ devices in the system. Without groups, the Administrator would have to
permission each user against those same devices.

Before you create a group, right-click on the TruVision Navigator Server node in the
Navigator and select Properties. The Properties dialog will appear. Ensure the
Permission Model is set to Advanced.

Now, right-click on the Groups node in the Navigator and select Add Group. Provide a
name for the group on the Add Group dialog and click OK.
