User accounts, groups, home collections, and access rights are central features of
Hyper{G. Users in Hyper{G can have their own user accounts, which consist of
a username, one or more passwords, and a home collection. Home collections are
comparable with UNIX home directories, in which users can manage their own
private les (grant or deny access rights to certain users or user groups) and hotlists
pointers to resources.
HarAdmin is a tool for administrating user accounts and user groups. It is a
graphical X{Window based tool, written in C++ [Str91] and using the InterViews
UI ToolKit [LVC89, LCV87]. The basic functionalities are based on the VT100
terminal based tool hgadmin [Mau96] and on the Hyper{G Client/Server protocol
[KP94].
