How do I know which user is logged on? Why is the user name partially hidden?
You can view which user is logged on to the JCT when you open the User menu. The user information appears below the Help button. Only the first three characters of the user name appear. The remaining characters are hidden to ensure that unauthorized users cannot gain access to the user name used to log into the system.
How do I manage user accounts and passwords for JCT?
- Change Password: use this option to change your own password for JCT and SCT.
-
Administrator: use this option to open SCT's Security Administrator
System, where you can manage all user accounts for SCT and JCT. This option
is available to only administrators.
For more information, refer to Tools menu in the SCT: System Configuration Tool Help (LIT-12011964).
What happens when I change a user account password for SCT and JCT? Does my user account password change in the Metasys system?
User accounts for JCT are shared with SCT, so if you change your password through the SCT, it will also change for JCT. User accounts for JCT and SCT are not shared with the online Metasys system, so changing your password in SCT will not affect any Metasys server or engine user accounts.
What are the rules for creating a valid password? How often do passwords expire?
The following table lists the password rules enforced by the Metasys system user's language locale setting.
