To create remote user accounts

If the Infor LN database runs on a remote system, these situations can occur:

  • The database driver runs on the (local) application server and communicates with the remote database through the database client software. In this case, you do not have to create remote user files. This case is the most common situation.
  • The database driver runs on the remote database server. In this case, you must create remote user accounts for the Infor LN users. The Infor LN users connect to the remote system through remote user accounts. You can create remote user accounts on the local system or from the remote system.

If you create the remote user file from another remote system, the Startup System field in the user template must contain the user's system name.

Ensure that the application manager or system administrator who creates the remote user account for the Infor LN user has a user account on the Infor LN user’s system. The Infor LN user account is in fact a remote user account of the application manager or system administrator.
