7.1 Importing user accounts into Macintosh Manager

Macintosh Manager controls log-ins from Mac OS 9 clients. It also allows administrators to assign system rights to MM users & MM workgroups.

The MM user database is quite separate to the Mac OS X servers' user database - though Mac OS X users can be imported into Macintosh Manager as described below.

Launch "Macintosh Manager.app".  
Enter the administrators name and password into the authentication box.
Click on "Users" tab, and then click on the "Import all" button.

User names will be imported from the server.

Before the imported users can log in, they must be assigned to a Workgroup. Read the section "7.2 Assigning Macintosh Manager Users to workgroups".
