				ACMAN  V03

			Dynamic System Account Manager

			Installation Instructions


	     Lines 60 - 99 of each program in the account management package
	have been reserved for tailoring the programs to a particular in-
	stallation.  As is, the package will operate when: 1) each program
	is compiled in account [1,2] and 2) the protection codes of "CHGPAS"
	and "PRIMAN" are set to 232.


	Storing On Another Account
	--------------------------

	     To store the account manager on an account other than [1,2],
	change the variable LIBR$ found in line 65 of "ACMAN" and line 70
	of "MANAGE" to the account number where the package is to be stored.
	Then compile the programs on that account.


	Increasing Efficiency
	---------------------

	     Currently the programs are set up to create both workfiles on
	SY:.  The package will run more efficiently if each of the two work-
	files is stored on a different public disk.  To enable this, change
	the DATA statements at line 72 of "ACMAN" from:

			72	DATA SY:, SY:

	to the explicit device designations referring to the public structure,
	such as:

			72	DATA DK0:, DK1:

	Note that drive 0 (the system disk) should be the first entry in the
	list.  The account manager causes the "$ACCT.SYS" file to be created
	on the disk drive specified in the first entry.


	Changing Workfile Size
	----------------------

	     The account manage is capable of processing a maximum of 400
	accounts.  To process more/less accounts than these, 1) change the
	variable ACCT.MAX% in line 65 of "ACMAN" to indicate the maximum
	number of accounts to manage.  2) Change the dimension statements
	in line 60 of "ACMAN" such that the array size equals ACCT.MAX%.

	Changing Disks Managed
	----------------------

	     As is, the account manager manages accounts only on the public
	structure, SY:.  To manage accounts on private disks also, 1) set
	the variable DEV.MAX% in line 70 of "MANAGE" equal to the number of
	private disks to manage.  If DEV.MAX% is to be greater than 3, the
	variable DISK$() in the DIMENSION statment must be redimensioned
	to DEV.MAX% + 1%.  2) Include in the DATA statement at line 94 of
	"MANAGE" the device designators of the private disks to be managed.
	     Do NOT remove SY: from the list of disks to be managed.  SY:
	enables account management on all disks of the public structure
	simultaneously, and is the only device designator which causes
	the "$ACCT.SYS" file to be updated in a request.


	The "PRIMAN" Utility
	--------------------

	     The "PRIMAN" utility must also be set up.  As it is, it will
	not function at all (for security reasons).  All variables which must
	be initialized are at line 70 of "PRIMAN".  Set LIBR$ equal to the
	account number which is allowed to create/delete accounts on a private
	disk drive.  Set LIBPAS$ to any suitable password.  Set DISK$ to the
	physical drive name on which the user may create/delete accounts.  If
	the user may have access only to a particular pack on that drive, use
	the pack's logical name, instead.
