Hi Bob,

I checked, and the nmrsu account on the computer is password protected (I
was 99% sure it was, but I checked anyway). I also checked to make sure that
it was logged out (and not sitting idly in the background) since you can
now do multiple logins on windows (this is a Windows TopSpin installation).
The behavior didn’t change though. I still see the same thing. When
I move back to our standard account (which is an additional user in IconNMR),
it asks me for the password.

So somehow, I think that you are right in thinking that the difference lies
in whether or not it is an account associated with the OS or with the IconNMR
software. I checked the nmr user in IconNMR, and it has exactly the same
behavior.

Hello Andy,

This is worrisome.

Here are my thoughts:

The account "nmrsu" is actually a computer account, not a psuedo-account
created in IconNMR using the "additional users" feature in the IconNMR
Configuration. Therefore, the password associated with the account nmrsu
should be the same as you would use when logging in to the workstation
as user = nmrsu.

If you are able to login to the nmrsu account in IconNMR without a password,
that implies that there is no password associated with that account.
Can you check that? Close TopSpin and logout of the workstation. Then login
as user: nmrsu.

If there is indeed no password required to login as nmrsu, then I suggest
that you create a password immediately.

If, however, there is already a password associated with the account nmrsu,
then I don't know why you were able to login as nmrsu in IconNMR without a
password. That seems strange to me.

NOTE: When TopSpin asks you for a password when you run commands like "cf"
or "edprosol", it is not asking for the nmrsu password, but rather the "NMR
Administrative Password." This is purely a software related password that
was created when the software was installed, and is not associated with
a specific workstation account.

I hope this helps.

Bob.
