Popstore users who have popstore management privileges but lack
operating system privileges must log in to their account with
the LOGIN command in order to perform management operations.
Once logged in, the utility will then allow the user to perform
management operations. Users who have operating system privileges
(e.g., SYSPRV and SYSLCK privileges on OpenVMS), need not log in
to their account.
To log in to a popstore account, the popstore account's username
should be supplied using the username parameter to the LOGIN
command. If the username parameter is omitted, the utility will
use the name of the operating system account under which the user
is logged in. The utility will then prompt for a password. If
the correct password for the popstore account is supplied, and
the account has the manage flag set, then the utility will allow
management operations to be undertaken using the utility's image
privileges.
A popstore account is granted management privileges by specifying
/FLAGS=MANAGE
when creating or modifying it with the ADD or MODIFY commands.
