Hi,
at a running WinCC project we want to switch to the OS auth user administration. For security reasons, the server-side auth (at first for UI only) should be used. Then, according to online help, it is no longer possible to use the user root: But how do you log into the gedi? What's the workflow without a user root?
Thanks for taking my stupid questions

Hi,
If you havent changed anything in default users, "para" without password should make it. It basically have the same permissions as root in a default WinCC OA project. Then you should just create your own root user to be used.

Hi,
but how do you log in with another username? I start an User Interface with paramenter "-m gedi" and the root password is asked. I cannot find a parameter like "-user para".

Hi,
You actually found the good option
-user username:password. if no password -user username .
So for you for example, -user para (in the ui option from console). You can also use the config entry username.

Thanks a lot! Should have tried it, but it's not explained in the online help... (probably because of the bad search )

Re: User root at SSA-Project
This option can be found here in the help:
Reference tables > Manager options > General options
But I agree that it sometimes can be hard to find something in the help.
Searching for "user" does not find this page but "username" gives a hit...
