Security for Launcher

Starting Launcher does not require passing the username/password check. Once

invoked, Launcher can run automatically. However, if the user clicks on the Launcher

icon in the system tray, the program will pop up a username/password dialog. This

happens if this is a first time menu pop up, or when LauncherUI was locked. If the

user fails to pass the authentication check, no menu will appear.

There are three kinds of group: root, power user and general user. After passing

identification and authentication, functions will be enabled according to the login

user’s group. For more detail about user’s group, please refer to section 2.2 User

Inferface. The user can lock the Launcher as a security measure. When the Launcher

is locked, it turns back to the Start-up state. The user needs to pass identification and

authentication again to get to the popup menu.

ATTENTION: Only the login user or users of root group can unlock the program when

the program is locked. Refer to
