While the best way to maintain flexibility in your security strategy is to define common privileges with group accounts, you may find it easier not to use them. In general, this happens when you only have to create a small number of identical user accounts. If you decide not to include group accounts in your security plan, you can save time creating identical user accounts as described in the following steps.
To create identical user accounts:
- Create one user account.
- Export your security configuration.
- Open the export file in a text editor.
- Copy and paste the user account as many times as needed.
- Change the user name, login name, and password of each user account.
- Save the file and import it back into the Security Configuration program.
For more information on using this method, refer to the section Importing and Exporting the Security Configuration.
