System Administration
System administration in Dynamic edition can be done using the “System Admin” application crafted for this purpose. However, only root user and users who belong to “System Admin” group can execute this application. Static edition requires a configuration file for administration hence system administration application is not available for the static edition. Developers can craft their own administrator tool, use an open source version or purchase one crafted by NeuroKernel Research for the purpose.
1. Root User
Like every operating system, NeuroKernel requires a root user to handle low level configuration such as registering applications or creating/deleting users. During setup process a root user will also be created with a preferred password. It is also possible to assign some users to System Administrator group to have access to some low level configuration options if not all.
2. System Configuration
System configuration is done by a system administrator application.
