Defining Default User Permissions and Restrictions

 back  top  next

header

The availability of several Facsys features depends on the permissions and restrictions defined in a user's account profile. For example, the ability to schedule a fax with an Urgent priority is only granted to users who have the 'Schedule faxes with higher than normal priority' permission enabled in their Facsys profile.

 

In every Facsys user profile, a user can be assigned a permission that is appropriate to that user's faxing tasks and activities. To facilitate the management of permissions, Facsys provides a default permissions template that is applied automatically to all new Facsys user accounts and groups.

 

To do this, select the server name and go to its properties. Enable the default permissions on the permissions tab. Click OK to apply these settings.

 

When a new Facsys user account or group is created, it will inherit the default permissions, but those permissions can be modified on a "per-user" basis.

 

NOTES:

  • A user's permissions are also affected by the Facsys user groups to which the user may belong.

  • Changing the default permissions will not affect the user profiles that are already defined on the fax server.

  • The 'Administer and Configure Server' option gives the user access to the Facsys Administrator program and makes the user a "Facsys system administrator." Do not select this option as a default for new Facsys user accounts!

  • The Default Login account and Password for the Facsys Administrator is: Admin and password

    • Administrators may wish to change this to restrict access to the server.
