How to implement the User-Group Authorization feature

To implement the User-Group Authorization feature on a UNIX platform, you must first successfully complete the OpenEdge installation program.

Table 8–2 identifies and briefly describes the purpose of each new command-line option.

Table 8–2: User-Group parameter options

Parameter name	Syntax	Purpose
Individual user name and password required.	-requireusername	Requires a minimum of one user ID to be resolved for each AdminServer operation before it can be executed.
Group authorization required.	-admingroup group [{,|:}group...]	Requires a minimum of one group to be resolved for each AdminServer operation before it can be executed. A colon-separated list differentiates groups when you are specifying multiple groups on the command line.

On UNIX platforms, a group name can be any user-defined or NIS group name. UNIX can also support subgroups.
