To view and manage the user/role assignments, go
to Application Management > User Security >
Roles > Users.
• Assign Role—Launches the Assign User Role
wizard that initially provides controls to select
one or more users or groups (Figure 2).
• User name—Specifies the local or domain user
account or group name.
• Domain—Specifies the Windows domain or the
HP Web Jetadmin host name in the case of local
users or groups.
• Browse—Finds users or groups on either the
HP Web Jetadmin host or the Windows domain.
After clicking Next, one role can be selected for assignment. Group selection is possible when the
role has a Group, which is discussed in “Device group restriction type” on page 6. After confirming
the settings, the Results page shows the new user/role assignments. After these assignments are
complete, users can access HP Web Jetadmin by browsing to the server without being prompted for a
username or password.
Users and user groups can be selected when making user/role assignments. The following table
shows how both user and user groups can be referenced when making user/role assignments.
Type Domain User/user group
Domain user Domain name User name
Domain group Domain name Domain group name
Local user Computer name Local user name
Local group Computer name Local group name
In most cases, the domain user, domain user group, or local user group is used in user/role
assignment. The following are examples:
• Helpdesk employees are members of a domain group that the IT team manages. New helpdesk
employees are automatically granted permissions to the HelpDesk role in HP Web Jetadmin by
virtue of the domain group membership. The domain group membership is managed at the
Windows domain.
• The HP Web Jetadmin administrator has many partners who also use HP Web Jetadmin. These
users can be tracked locally by using a group on the HP Web Jetadmin installation host.
For more information about local or domain user accounts and domain or local groups, see the
Microsoft security documents.
Existing user/role assignments can be edited to change or delete the user/user group or the HP Web
Jetadmin role. To view the existing assignments, go to Application Management > User Security >
Users.
NOTE At this time, HP Web Jetadmin does not support groups within groups. For example, assume
that User A is a member of Group A and Group A is a member of Group B. If Group B is
assigned to a role, User A does not have access to that role.
