ARRIS Timbuktu for Macintosh v8.8.3- Getting Started Guide - Manual (Page 98)

Getting Started with Timbuktu Pro for Macintosh | 98
6. To require the new Registered User to ask for permission each time they begin
a Timbuktu Pro session with your computer, select the Ask for Permission
Each Time check box. (For information about the Ask for Permission process,
see
“Allowing Remote Users to Ask for Permission” on page 92 .)
7. By default, most services and privileges are automatically preselected in the
privileges list. (Screen blanking, keyboard locking, and full file access for
exchange are not preselected.) Customize the services and privileges
assigned to the new Registered User by selecting or deselecting them in the
scrolling list.
See “Assigning Services and Access Privileges” on page 98 for information
about the services and privileges you can assign.
Note: Services granted to Guest Users are automatically granted to all Regis-
tered Users as well. For example, if you grant the Observe service to Guest
Users, you cannot deny this service to Registered Users. It will be dimmed in
the Let New User area in the New User dialog box.
8. If you wish to let the Registered User dial directly into your computer's
modem, select the Let User Dial Into Your Computer option and configure the
appropriate options. See
“Setting up Timbuktu Pro for Incoming Dial Direct
Access” on page 102 .
9. Click Save to confirm your selections, and click the close box to return to the
Define Users dialog box.
The Registered User will now be able to access your computer. When the user con-
nects, they will enter the user name you and password you assigned them. Tim-
buktu Pro will authenticate the user and allow or deny the connection.
Note that the Registered User is allowed to change the password you assign, sub-
ject to your password restrictions. (See
“Setting Password Rules” on page 38 for
information about password restrictions.)
Assigning Services and Access Privileges
When you edit access privileges for Guest Users and Ask for Permission users,
and when you create accounts for Registered Users, you can assign a number of
different services and access privileges.
Most service options are self-explanatory. However, the Exchange and Control
services include other privileges that allow you to customize the amount of ac-
cess you grant to remote users.
