groupdef and add commands prompt you for values to enter. Use the following
transcript file from a typical command sequence for reference. You should notice that
the password prompt does not echo any characters as you type. If you want to verify
your work, you can use the Password Manager list command to print the contents of
the SPD Server password file, following the add command.
You should see content similar to the following:

These commands initialize the user password database.
You should add other user IDs before opening the SPD Server system for use.
Authorization level 7 is privileged. Authorization level 7 allows users to circumvent
desirable SPD Server ACL security measures. Unlike the previous example, most or
all users should be given authorization level 0 (which is non-privileged), so that SPD
Server security cannot be bypassed. For more information, see “Notes for SPD Server
Administrators” on page 32 .
Note: The administrator password expires during the first logon to the SPD Server
host. For more information about passwords, see the psmgr utility reference
documentation.
