While we recommend using a security protocol such as LDAP for managing users and permissions, the CLM Realm is still available for those who would like a lighter setup, where all users, groups and rights are stored directly in the IQ Server.
At a minimum, the IQ Server requires you to log in before anything else can happen. This can be done by creating a user within the CLM realm, or by configuring LDAP, and logging in via one of those connected users.

With regard to changing a user’s password, a user can always change their own password. However, this requires knowledge of the existing password. If you encounter a user that has forgotten their password, you can reset it for them. |
