Hyperview in a Browser can be configured to require user accounts for access, or for these to be optional. For more information, see the No Login Required option for Adding or modifying a Hyperview Service.
By default, Hyperview in a Browser services allow access without user accounts, i.e. in No Login Required mode.
However, if the No Login Required option is not chosen when a Hyperview Service is configured, users are required to have accounts in order to access Hyperview in a web browser, and logging in is required.
Even when logging in is not required, it is still possible to log in, if user accounts exist. Since user data like bookmarks and home pages are associated with user accounts, logging in makes these available from browsers on different computers. When Hyperview in a Browser is used without the user being logged in, these items can still be created, but they are associated with the IP address of the moment, rather than a user, and thus will not be available from other computers.
Users may update their own passwords. Only the Administrator user may create, modify and delete user accounts.
