Abstract
The User Account Management System (UAMS) is an extension of the
original User DataBase (UDB) system presented at the USENIX Large
Installation System Administration Conference in 1990. This paper
describes the extensions of the UDB system from a single
administrative entity tool for a distributed set of computers to a
multidepartmental system over the period of three years since the
first paper. It also covers the added features that have been
developed, such as support for Novell networks and POP clients.
