H : Configuring Access Groups and Users Now you're ready to configure two access groups and two users--MANAGERS with user SALESMGR, and TUTORIAL with user TUTORIAL. Figure 2-3 shows Worksheet 2 with the access group and user information filled in. The access group defines the capabilities its users can exercise. The user definition is your chance to name users, give them passwords (if desired), and define their access to system resources such as number of saved tables, disc space, and MPE priority in the server process. You can also define them as secondary DBAs. Here's what the system will look like when you add these access groups and users:Figure 2-10.
