Security Add User

 

When creating a user to have security rights, there are several settings that need to be considered:

 

Username

This field is where you assign a unique login name to a user. When a user attempts to access a security enabled PG Admin or GUI Client, they will be prompted for this username.

Use Windows Login Credentials

When this option is checked, both the GUI Client and PG Admin will allow a user logged into windows with this name to access the program. For example, if you create a user named "Johnny" and a workstation is currently logged in as the Windows user "Johnny", it will grant access to the program.

Password

This field is where you assign a unique password to a user. When a user attempts to access a security enabled PG Admin or GUI Client, they will be prompted for this password.

Alias

This field allows you to set a security alias for this user. For more information, please refer to the Detailed Security Description section.
