# Authorizing Users to Access Change Manager

To perform Change Manager operations, you must be an authorized user of the Sun Management Center application. In addition, you must have certain permissions to perform particular tasks.

## How to Add Change Manager Users

When adding users to the Change Manager server, give them the general, administrator, and domain administrator permissions.

1. Become superuser on the Change Manager server.

2. Add the names of the users, one valid UNIX® user name per line, to the `/var/opt/SUNWsymon/cfg/esusers` file.

       # tail /var/opt/SUNWsymon/cfg/esusers
       esmaster
       espublic
       root
       pat
       suzi
       chris
       #

3. Add the user names to the `esadm` and `esdomadm` stanzas in the `/etc/group` file.

   Separate each user name with a comma.

       esadm::1000:root,pat,suzi,chris
       esdomadm::1001:root,pat,suzi,chris

To delete users or user permissions, remove the user names from these files.
