Create Cell Admin DCE Accounts

Process Step 8: When the cell is created, several groups are automatically created: cds-admin, sec-admin, and dts-admin. Use rgy_edit commands to create accounts for the cell administrator in these groups to facilitate populating the DCE namespaces. See the OSF DCE Administration Guide -Core Components for more information on the rules and guidelines governing DCE accounts and alias names.

Our sample cell has privileged accounts for ike, ida, and itamar, and unprivileged aliases for ikeadmin, idaadmin, and itamaradmin.

See the DCE Cell Naming Process Flowchart, which shows the entire DCE cell naming process graphically.
