User Alias

User Aliases may be found in the [User Aliases] section of the OpenLink Session Rules Book. You will also find User Aliases in the Edit User Aliases portion of the Administrative Assistant. The standard User Alias passes the uid of the user who wishes to connect. However, you may create regular expressions which map many users onto one alias. For instance:

scott|system = insecure

This allows you to create a single Mapping Rule which applies in a variety of cases. This insures economy and flexibility in security. If you do not employ regular expressions, you will need to create one Mapping Rule per user alias.
