Add New User
From the User List press <N> to add a new user.  (From Command Mode type <A> - <E> - <U> - <N>.)   The administrator will be
prompted for a "Y" or "N" answer to "Are you sure?" and with a "Y" answer the Edit User menu will come up where all of the
parameters for a new user can be defined.   When finished, press <X> or <Esc> to exit the menu and the new user will have been
added to the User List.
By default, a new user will be given access to the same Host Adapters as those listed in the Host Adapter access list of User #1.
To change this, the administrator must edit the user host access list as described on page 27.
FYI:   The first user in the user list is used as the "template" user.    Each time a new user is created,  the configuration
parameters of the first user are copied to the new user.   The administrator can either leave those parameters unchanged
and rapidly setup more users with the same access rights as the first user, or change the parameters as desired.
