4.0 Creating Test Users

For information about users and groups in Filr, see Users and Groups with Filr in the How Filr Works–Overview Guide.

The tasks in this guide involve test users that you create in a separate test container.

Create an ou container named testusers in your AD domain.

HINT:Locating the container at the top of the domain isn’t required, but it makes the path shorter during the LDAP import.

The use of a separate container simplifies the LDAP import process and the removal of users when your evaluation concludes.

Create the users listed in Table 4-1 in the testusers container and assign them passwords as indicated in the table and shown in the screen shots that follow.

Table 4-1 Test Users to Create

First Name	Last Name	User Logon Name	Role in Organization	Example Password	Home Folder
A	Red	ared	Development Supervisor	filrrocks	Yes
A	Pink	apink	Developer	filrrocks	No
A	Blue	ablue	IT Supervisor	filrrocks	Yes
A	Green	agreen	Network Technician	filrrocks	No
A	Yellow	ayellow	Marketing Supervisor	filrrocks	Yes
A	Orange	aorange	Marketing Administrative Assistant	filrrocks	No
A	Black	ablack	Director of Sales	filrrocks	Yes
A	Gray	agray	Sales Representative	filrrocks	No
Specify only the Full Name as filrproxyuser		filrproxyuser	n/a	novellfilr	No

If the simple passwords don’t meet your password policy requirements, specify passwords that do.
Using the same password for all users simplifies the evaluation test process.
Using the “administrative” password for the filrproxyuser user highlights its role as a Filr system user.

IMPORTANT:Ensure that you deselect User must change password at next login as shown.

Ensure that you create all of the users.
