In later versions this account has been limited so that it can be used only to access a server locally, and not for use by Virtual ViewX. Also the inactivity timeout for the account is short.
While the Super User account can be useful, it does pose a security risk to your system - if an unauthorized user were to discover the user name and password for the Super User, they would have access to your entire system. For this reason, we recommend that once your system has been set up and is running, you disable the Super User account.
If a user encounters difficulties when trying to access the system at a later date, the Super User can be enabled again and used to alter the security settings. To do this the installation kit needs to be re-run on the server node. A further use is that it may also be necessary to use the Super User account to correct the security settings for imported groups which had their own security settings and refer to users not present in the database.
To disable the Super User account, you can use the Change Super-User dialog box.
