Create and Import Users

Now that permissions are set the WebShare Manager users can be created and imported. Before a user can be added to the WebShare Manager system they must first be created within the EnGarde system itself. The WebShare Manager system can not create or delete users, only edit basic information for that user within the WebShare Manager system.

Create the necessary users for the system, for our sample we will create 'nick', 'ryan', 'john', 'steve', 'pete', 'alison' and 'marie'. These users are from different departments within the small business. Instructions for creating these users in EnGarde can be found in the EnGarde Secure Professional manual in the System Management section.

Once the users are created as the 'admin' user in the WebShare Manager select Admin from the navigation bar and from there select Import System Users.

The Import System Users menu will display all system users that have not yet been imported into the system.

• [NOTE:]A user will automatically be imported into the system if they attempt to login. They will be added, by default to the 'Users' group if this happens.

By importing a user from this menu a group can be assigned to that user prior to that user logging in, assuring their permissions are all configured correctly.

To import users first select which users are to be imported. This is done by checking off the box in the 'Import?' column for the associated user. Next the group that the user is to become a member of must be selected. In the pull-down menu each group that exists in the WebShare Manager system can be selected.

• [NOTE:]A user can be a member of only one group at this time. They can be added to multiple groups from the Group Management menu later.

Once each user to be imported into the system has been assigned a group the Import Users button can be clicked and those selected users will be inserted into the system.
