To add an lmadmin user account

| 1. | Click New.

| 2. | Enter the account information. Required fields are identified with an asterisk (*).

Field | Description
Role | Select the user’s role. This selection depends on whether you intend the user to have Dashboard privileges only or both Dashboard and Administrator privileges and whether the user is a locally managed user or a domain user. See Understand User Account Types for more information.
User Name | Provide the appropriate value:
| • | For a locally managed user, define a user’s sign-in ID (up to 32 characters). This value is case-sensitive and can include spaces, but cannot include backslashes (\).
| • | For a Windows Active Directory user or group ID, enter the name in the following format:
domain\username (or groupname) where domain is a valid Active Directory domain to which the machine running lmadmin has a trusted relationship and username or groupname identifies a valid account within that domain. This value is not case-sensitive and can include up to 32 characters.
First Name/Last Name | (For locally managed users only) Optionally, provide an easily identifiable first and last name for the user. Each value can have up to 32 characters.
Password/Confirm Password | (For locally managed users only) Define the user’s Password (up to 32 characters); then enter the same value for Confirm Password. This page does not display the existing password. Note:lmadmin does not manage passwords for Windows Active Directory domain users. At sign-in, a domain user is prompted for the password defined for that user in Active Directory. lmadmin then contacts the Active Directory domain server to verify the user.
Password Expired | (For locally managed users only) When editing an existing user account, select this option to force the current password for an account to expire. The next time this user signs in, lmadmin prompts the user to change the password.

| 3. | Click Save.
