-| Allow Sysop Access | Yes | Allow users with system operator access to perform privileged sysop functions while logged into the BBS. Setting this option to No will prevent users with sysop [[access:level|security level]] from invoking functions that require system-password authentication. Instead, when a sysop function is attempted the request is ignored. \\ \\ This effectively overrides "Require Sys Pass During Login" below. The sysop will still be able to login to the BBS as a normal user, but will not be asked for the system password and will not be able to invoke sysop functions that required the password. \\ \\ This setting also affects the sysop actions available in the [[server:ftp|FTP server]] when authenticating with <user-pass>:<system-pass> as the password. The sysop user can still authenticate and login, but none of the sysop actions will be available to them. |

 +| System Password                 | This is an extra security password may be required for sysop login and sysop functions.  This password should be something not easily guessed and should be kept absolutely confidential.\\ \\ This password must be entered at the Terminal Server ''SY:'' prompt. | 
 +| Prompt for System Password | Require the system password, along with the sysop's personal user account password, immediately when a system operator is logging in. "Allow Sysop Access" must be set to Yes for this setting to take effect. | 
 +| Allow Sysop Access | Allow users with system operator access to perform privileged sysop functions while logged into the BBS. Setting this option to No will prevent users with sysop [[access:level|security level]] from invoking functions that require system-password authentication. Instead, when a sysop function is attempted the request is ignored. \\ \\ This effectively overrides "Require Sys Pass During Login" below. The sysop will still be able to login to the BBS as a normal user, but will not be asked for the system password and will not be able to invoke sysop functions that required the password. \\ \\ This setting also affects the sysop actions available in the [[server:ftp|FTP server]] when authenticating with <user-pass>:<system-pass> as the password. The sysop user can still authenticate and login, but none of the sysop actions will be available to them. | 
 +| Display/Log Passwords Locally | Displays passwords locally and logs them to disk (e.g., when there's a failed login attempt). \\ \\ For [[howto:hardening|elevated security]], set this option to No. | 
 +| Open to New Users | Allow users to logon on as 'New' to create (register) a new user account. | 
 +| User Expires When Out-of-time | Set users to Expired Account Values (configured elsewhere in the System menu) immediately if they run out of time while logged in.  |
