Creating and Managing Accounts

Every network operating systems have built-in applications which allow the administrator to manage user and group accounts.
For example Windows NT has User Manager for Domains while NetWare has NWADMIN / NETADMIN.
The user needs to have administrative privileges before it can manage accounts on the system.

Default User Accounts
Most of the network systems have default user accounts that are created at the time of installation of the operating system.
Along with the user account and administrative account in some cases the guest group is also installed to provide minimum access to the resources for occasional users.
