General Information About Con-nect Cabinet Maintenance

Cabinet Maintenance is used to add and maintain the Con-nect cabinets and users. It can be accessed by both the cabinet administrator(s) and the supervisor. A cabinet has a unique 8-byte (maximum) name. Generally, if a cabinet is a private cabinet, the cabinet ID is the same as the ID of the user to whom it is assigned.

The following cabinet types can be defined:

  • private cabinet;

  • standalone cabinet;

  • shared cabinet;

  • public cabinet.

In addition to the cabinet types above is the cabinet SYSCNT which can be accessed and maintained only by the system administrator(s).

To perform one of the functions, either mark it with any character and press ENTER; or press the PF-key which is assigned to that function. The screen for that function is then displayed.

Add a Cabinet

Enter the name of the new cabinet in the "Cabinet" line of the "Administration - Cabinet Maintenance" screen. In the case of a shared cabinet, enter the group name; in the case of a private cabinet, you usually enter the user ID from the TP Monitor.

Note:
If the name (ID) of the new cabinet is a number and is specified in the "Addressee(s)" line while sending mail, problems will arise, since Con-nect objects are also identified internally by numbers. However, problems will not occur if the last name or description are specified in the "Addressee(s)" line.

Select the Add Cabinet function. As a result, the "Administration - Add Cabinet cabinet-name" screen appears. Specify one of the following cabinet types:

Private Cabinet

Only one user is defined to a private cabinet. It is associated with the user ID from the TP Monitor or from Natural Security.

Standalone Cabinet

This cabinet has no user directly associated with it, but can be accessed by anyone who has the password. Only the cabinet administrator can display a list in which this cabinet is shown (i.e. using the Display Cabinet(s) function). This means that when a user issues the "DISPLAY Cabinet" command, this cabinet is not displayed in the resulting list.

Shared Cabinet

The shared cabinet can be accessed by defined members; non-members can access it with the password.

After you add the cabinet, you must define the members of the shared cabinet. See Members of a Shared Cabinet.

If a shared cabinet can receive or send mail, a distribution list is automatically created with the shared cabinet's name.

Public

Any Con-nect user can access a public cabinet without a password.

Press ENTER, and depending on the cabinet type you specified, the following lines are displayed at the bottom of the screen. Enter the information as appropriate.

Private Cabinet
Last Name Last name of the user.
First Name First name of the user.
Initial Optional - middle initial of the user.
Standalone, Shared or Public Cabinet
Description A description of the cabinet.
Disallow Mail Mark this field if mail is not to be received and sent from the cabinet. This includes invitations to meetings, which means that if the cabinet is a resource, the resource cannot be reserved for the meeting via Con-nect. If in the case of a shared cabinet this field is marked, a distribution list for the cabinet is not automatically created.

Press ENTER to add the cabinet. As a result, the "Modify Cabinet cabinet-name" screen appears, you must then specify the profile components for the cabinet.

You can add several cabinets at once by using theMass Cabinet Maintenance function. See Con-nect Mass Cabinet Maintenance and Remote Access.

Cabinet and User Profile

The profile of a cabinet consists of two parts: the cabinet profile and the user profile. They contain the defaults specified by the system administrator with the System Cabinet Defaults function. See System Cabinet Defaults.

You can further restrict the activities which are allowed for the cabinet and modify other default values. However, you cannot allow an activity which the system administrator has disallowed.

You can also use the Command and Object Table function to authorize each cabinet user to modify his own cabinet profile - by permitting use of the command MODIFYwith the object Profile.

Sample screens and discriptions of the cabinet and user profiles are provided in the topics below:

Password

A user can access a cabinet in one of two ways: he must either know the password for the cabinet, or he must be defined as a shared user of the cabinet.

The cabinet ID is the default password, you can modify it by entering any other password.

This is the only value specified in the Cabinet Profile which can be modified by a user with the "MODIFY Profile" command, and every user should modify his password to protect his cabinet.

Security

Certain objects created within Con-nect are assigned security levels.

To access (i.e. read, modify, copy or print) an object, the object must not be marked as private and the user must have a level equal to or greater than the security level of the object.

Read, Modify, Copy, Print Specify the levels (0 to 9) which are to be taken as the default for the cabinet.

In the case of a shared cabinet in which the members do not use the profile of their private cabinets or special profiles, these levels are taken as the default for the members. See Members of a Shared Cabinet.

Send
Max. Number of Addressees The maximum number of addressees (1 to 9999) to whom an object can be sent during one send operation.
Address Level The address level establishes limitations for the send functions. As a general rule, a user cannot send anything to cabinets (users) who have an address level higher than his own address level. The value entered in this field is the address level assigned to the cabinet (user). Specify a value between 0 (lowest level) and 9 (highest level). If in the case of a shared cabinet in which mail is allowed the address level is modified, the "Shared Cabinet Distribution List" window appears. It confirms that you have changed the address level for the shared cabinet. If you want the address level changed for all members of the shared cabinet's distribution list, press ENTER. Otherwise, press PF3 so that only the shared cabinet is modified.
may send _ levels higher You can authorize a user to send objects to addressees who have a higher address level by indicating the number of levels higher in this field. For example, suppose you assign address level 5 for a cabinet (user). If you enter a 2 in the "may send _ levels higher" field, the user can send Con-nect objects to users who have an address level as high as 7.
Permitted

An X adjacent to a function means that it can be used within the cabinet. By default, all the functions except "Cabinet Maintenance" and "System Administration" are permitted. You disallow a function which is permitted by removing the X adjacent to it and pressing ENTER.

An X adjacent to the Cabinet and System Maintenance functions defines the user as a supervisor and can handle all functions of a cabinet and system administrator.

Cabinet Maintenance The user is a cabinet administrator and can perform cabinet maintenance.
System Maintenance The user is a system administrator and can perform system maintenance.
Command Prompting Prompting windows are displayed if a faulty or ambiguous command is entered.
Con-form If not permitted, the user is unable to use: Con-form and the OUTPUT command, FORMAT a document or a mail item, or ADD, DISPLAY and MODIFY printer profiles.
Modify Own Address The user can change his work or home address.
Display Home Address The user can display the home address of any user (including his own); if not authorized, only the work address is visible on the "Display Address" screen.
Send External Mail The user can send mail to external mail nodes (e.g. Telex, external Con-nect nodes, SNADS). If you restrict the cabinet from sending external mail, the cabinet user is unable to send mail to all external nodes. However, if a nickname is defined to an external node in cabinet SYSCNT, the user can send mail to that node by specifying the nickname and not the name of the external node.
Modify Expiration Date The user can change the expiration date of the objects he has added. The change is made on the "Info" or "Modify" screen of the object (depending on the object).
Read Mail The user can read mail placed in his Inbasket.

Administrator Profile

Only a supervisor can access this function. It is used to limit the administrative functions of a cabinet or system administrator. You cannot limit the functions for another user who is also a supervisor.

The "Administration - Cabinet Profile" screen contains an additional invisible field to the right of the "Cabinet Maintenance" field. Mark this field with any character to access the following window:

Date format

Specifies how the date is displayed on all screens, and the order in which the day, month and year appear. The values mean:

1 The day is shown as a number.
2 The month is shown as a number.
3 The year is shown as a two-digit number.
4 The month is shown as a three-letter abbreviation.
5 The year is shown as a four-digit number.

A delimiter separates the day, month, and year values. You can use any character, including a blank.

In the example above, the date format is 1.4.5 - which means that the date is displayed as "4.Nov.2003".

Time format

Specifies how the time is displayed on all screens. The values mean:

0 24 hour display, e.g. 15:35.
1 AM/PM display, e.g. 3:35 PM.

Note:
When using the 24 hour display, 23:59 is the last minute of the current day and 0:00 is considered the beginning of the next day.

Delimiter

The delimiter separates the hours and the minutes. You can use any character, including a blank.

Timezone

The local time zone (taken from the data center) is the default, and is specified as 0. You can specify any other time zone by entering the number of hours ahead (e.g. 6) or behind (e.g. -8) your data center time zone. This is helpful, when a user adds calender entries.

However, the values specified here do not affect the time shown in the upper left corner of all Con-nect screens, as the local time is always displayed.

The local (CPU) time zone is specified on the "Administration - System Defaults" screen. See System Defaults.

Week start

Indicates the first day of the week that is shown on the Con-nect menu and the calendar screens. The values mean:

1 The first day of the week is Monday.
2 The first day of the week is Tuesday.
...  
7 The first day of the week is Sunday.
Day start

The start of a 10-hour period within which you expect the greatest number of calendar entries. A day on the "Display Month" screen begins with this time. For example, the values mean:

0 The day starts at midnight (12 PM or 0:00) and ends at 10 o'clock in the morning (10 AM or 10:00).
8 The day starts at 8 o'clock in the morning (8 AM or 8:00) and ends at 6:00 o'clock in the evening (6 PM or 18:00).

An asterisk (*) to the left or to the right of the time scale of the "Display Month" screen indicates that a calendar entry occurs before or after the period covered by the scale.

Set cabinet sliding window _ 0-99 or

Determines from which point the Con-nect calendar interprets a two-digit year value as belonging to another century. For further information, see System Defaults.

If you specify a value in this field, you cannot mark the "Mark to use system value" field.

Mark to use system value

This field is initially marked. The number to the right of this field is the value defined as the system default. It is defined in the "Administration - System Defaults" screen in either the "Con-nect sliding window" or "Use Natural YSLW" field. For further information, see System Defaults.

If you mark this field, you cannot enter a value in the "Set cabinet sliding window" field.

Field

This column contains the type of information that can be displayed in the "Contents of Folder Name" screen. The adjacent "Pos" column is used to determine whether it will be displayed.

Pos

The order in which the corresponding information is to be displayed in the "Contents of Folder Name" screen. Specify the order by entering consecutive numbers from 1 to 14 in this column. If you leave a field blank, the corresponding information is not displayed in the "Contents of Folder Name" screen.

Len

The field length for the corresponding information in the "Contents of Folder Name" screen. Specify the length by entering the required number of characters in this column.

The maximum length for all fields is 74. The currently defined total length is displayed in the "Total" field. If you exceed the maximum length, an error message is displayed as soon as you press ENTER. The layout is not saved in this case.

Header

Name, Description

If the object has a name, the name is displayed in the "Contents of Folder" screen. The length of the name displayed is determined by the value in the corresponding "Name Length" field.

If the object does not have a name, the description is displayed in parentheses.

If the object has both a name and a description, the name is displayed first. The length of the description is the difference between the defined length for this field and the value specified in the "Name Length" field.

4 The month is shown as a three-letter abbreviation.
5 The year is shown as a four-digit number.

A delimiter separates the day, month, and year values. You can use any character, including a blank. In the example above, the date format is 1.4.5 which means that the date is displayed as "16.Aug.1999".

Set mail status message

If a user will not be available through Con-nect for an extended period of time, you can set a mail status message for the user (e.g. if that user is ill).

Enter any character in this field to activate the mail status message.

Note:
The mail status message is not displayed when a user sends a reply to a memo or an invitation to a meeting.

To cancel the mail status message, remove the character from this field. The message is still shown in the window, but is not displayed when someone attempts to send mail to that user.

Date

The (starting) date for the mail status message.

Note:
Day, month, and (optionally) year must be entered in the same sequence as shown in the upper right corner of the screen. When you abbreviate (truncate) the name of the month, you must make sure that the abbreviation is unique.

to

Optional - the ending date for the mail status message. It must not occur later than 3 years after the starting date.

Time

The time range (start and ending time) in which the mail status message is to appear on the specified day(s). When the mail status message is to appear during the entire day, you specify 12:01 AM to 11:59 PM (0:00 to 23:59).

Mark _ to hide date and time

When you mark this field, the date and time range for the mail status message is not displayed in the mail status message window of another user.

Set

To activate the Cc feature, mark this field.

Cc

You can specify who is to receive a copy of each mail item that is sent to the user. This can be a nickname, user ID, cabinet name or bulletin board. You can also enter an asterisk (*) to select the addressee from a list.

This feature does not apply to invitations to meetings.

A Cc can also be defined with a cabinet address. See Cabinet Address / Description. However, the Cc defined with the mail status message works independently from the Cc and Cc 2 defined in the cabinet address. Thus, 3 different Cc definitions may be in use.

Message text

In the lines below the Cc, type the message you want to be displayed when other users send mail to the user.

Press ENTER to confirm your modifications.

Press PF3 to close the window.

Note:
Your modifications are not saved until you quit from the "Administration - User Profile" screen.

Main Menu Name

By default, this line is blank and the menu which has been defined in cabinet SYSCNT by the system administrator or supervisor is used as the main menu. If another menu has not been defined, the Con-nect menu is the main menu.

If you create a default menu for your environment in cabinet SYSCNT, the "Main Menu Name" line must be blank (i.e. it must not contain the name of any menu).

If the main menu defined for your environment does not fit the needs of the current cabinet, you can use another menu created and stored in cabinet SYSCNT. In this case, the name of the menu is specified in this line.

Display Month/Mail/Calendar

The sequence the information (month, mail, calendar) is displayed on the Con-nect menu. The values mean:

0 The information is not displayed.
1 The information is displayed first.
2 The information is displayed next.
3 The information is displayed last.
Display Day Name

If this field is marked, the name of the current day is displayed below the date in the upper right corner of the screens. If this field is left blank, the system number for the screen is displayed.

Overlay Calendar ID

Optional - the ID of one or two other private cabinets to which the cabinet has access. If given permission, with the SHARE command, the cabinet can display and modify the specified cabinets' calendar entries.

In a private cabinet, the IDs of public and shared cabinets can also be specified. In a shared cabinet, only the IDs of other shared or public cabinets can be specified. In a public cabinet, only the IDs of other public cabinets can be specified.

Window Border

The character to be used for the vertical window borders.

If the terminal supports reverse video, the window border is always shown in reverse video.

Note:
If the terminal does not show the window border in reverse video, it might be necessary to enter the appropriate Natural terminal command. For example, for an IBM terminal, you enter %T=3278 (or %T=3279 for a color terminal). See the Natural reference documentation for further information.

Modify the address as required and press ENTER to update                       

Last name, first name, initial and sex can only be modified here.

Note:
If, at a later date, you modify a user's first or last name who is authorized for remote access, you must also flag the user to be updated with the next synchronization. See Remote Access - User.

Most fields are self-explanatory. Special fields for the work address are described below.

Sex

"Sex" is the default name for this field. You can enter any value. For example, "F" or "Female".

You can rename this field via error message 0130 (for example, to "Salutation"). For further information, see Changing the Cabinet Address/Description Fields.

Phone/Mobile/Fax

Three fields are provided for each number:

1 Enter the country code (3 digits) in the first field. Leading zeros are automatically deleted.
2 Enter the phone number (15 digits) in the second field.
3 Enter the extension (5 digits) in the third field.

Phone 2 and mobile can only be specified for the work address.

Set Cc

This can only be defined on the screen showing the work address. You can specify who is to receive a copy of each mail item that is sent to this user (Cc and Cc 2). This can be a nickname, user ID, cabinet name or bulletin board. You can also enter an asterisk (*) to select the addressee from a list.

To activate this feature, mark the "Set" field.

This feature does not apply to invitations to meetings.

A Cc can also be defined with a mail status message. See Mail Status Message. However, the Cc defined with the mail status message works independently from Cc and Cc 2 defined in the user address. Thus, 3 different Cc definitions may be in use.

E-mail

This can be defined on both screens, work address and home address. You can specify the user's e-mail address. This is only for informational purposes.

Internet

This can only be defined on the screen displaying the work address. "Internet" is the default name for this field. You can specify, for example, your company's home page. This is only for informational purposes.

You can rename this field via error message 0130 (for example, to "Comments"). For further information, see Changing the Cabinet Address/Description Fields.

Mark the "Mail Status" field to display the "Set Mail Status Message" window, as shown below.

Complete your entries and press ENTER in each screen to update the cabinet address.

Owners of a Cabinet

You can limit access to a cabinet, or group of cabinets, to specific administrator(s) by adding them as owners of the cabinets.

Cabinets which have owners can only be modified by the administrators who have been specified as owners (in the case of private cabinets, they can be modified by the user to which they are assigned as well). Cabinets which do not have owners can be modified by all cabinet administrators.

When you specify the owners of a cabinet, keep the following restrictions in mind:

  • A cabinet administrator cannot perform the following with cabinets which have owners unless he is one of the owners:

    • mark the cabinet for DELETE or MOVE

    • modify the Command and Object table

    • modify the Cabinet and User Profile

    • modify the Owners

    • modify the Members

    • modify the Address/Description

    • create Statistical or Membership reports

  • A supervisor can perform all functions for every cabinet.

 Mark one item from the list above

You can mark one user at a time in the list and either delete him from the cabinet, or modify the type of profile the member uses for the cabinet.

If any member of the cabinet is an external user, the external user's alias number is displayed in the column Member. External members can only be deleted with the Remote Access - Membership function. See Delete Authorization.

Add Member(s)

Enter the last name(s) or the user ID(s) of the new member(s) in the "Member(s)" line, and specify the type of profile the member(s) will use when accessing the shared cabinet:

1 The profile of the shared cabinet (the printer specified in the user's profile will be used).
2 The member's own user profile.
3 A special profile which must be specified using the Modify Profile for Member function, discussed later in this section (this can only be used when a single member is being added).

To add several members at one time, you can enter an asterisk (*) in the "Member(s)" line. A window listing all cabinet users is displayed. Mark those you want to define as members of the cabinet and press ENTER. All members added by this method will have the same profile.

The type of profile used by the member determines the cabinet ID used (as displayed in the upper left corner of the screen). For example:

1 The name of the shared cabinet is used.
2 The name (cabinet ID) of the member is used.
3 The name of the shared cabinet is used.

Specify the Add Member(s) function - Con-nect then displays the full name of the member just added to the right of the "Member(s)" line. To add additional members, repeat the process.

Delete Member(s)

You can delete member(s) from the cabinet using the following steps:

  • enter the member name(s) or user ID(s) in the "Member(s)" line of the "Administration - Shared Cabinet" screen; or

  • mark the member(s) on the "Administration - Display Members" screen;

  • and select the Delete Member(s) function.

Note:
External members can only be deleted from the cabinet with the Remote Access - Membership function. See Delete Authorization.

The name of the last member deleted is displayed to the right of the "Member" line.

Modify Profile for Member

Use this function to change the type of profile the member uses when accessing the cabinet, or to specify a special profile.

See Profile Initialization for a description of how a profile is initialized when a shared cabinet is used.

Specify the cabinet member for which you want to modify the profile using the following steps:

  • enter the member name or user ID in the "Member(s)" line of the "Administration - Shared Cabinet" screen; or

  • mark the member on the "Administration - Display Members" screen;

  • and select the Modify Profile for Member function.

Note:
The name of the last member modified during the session is displayed to the right of the "Member(s)" line.

As a result, the "Administration - Modify Profile" screen is displayed.

The type of profile currently being used is marked with "=>". Modify the type of profile by marking the new profile with any character.

If you select the special profile, you must define the profile just as you do when adding a new cabinet. See Cabinet Profile.

The special profile can then be used for existing members of other shared cabinets by marking the "Copy Special Profile to other Members" field.

By default, all commands which are supported are marked with an X, which means that they can be used from the cabinet without restrictions. If you remove an X, the adjacent command cannot be used from the cabinet. For example, the command PHONEPAD has been disallowed on the screen above.

You can also limit the objects which can be used in conjunction with certain commands by marking the commands (in the left-most column) with the letter O. In the example above, objects are limited for the ADD and MODIFYcommands.

After you have made your selections, press ENTER. As a result, a screen is displayed for the first command selected, listing the available objects for the command. By default, all objects are allowed. To disallow an object with the command, delete the X adjacent to the object.

The example below displays the objects permitted with the ADD command; the user of this cabinet cannot add command aliases or printer profiles.
