Hiding Applications

If you do not want a user to see data from particular applications, you can do this by banning the applications for that specific user. In order to edit the banned applications list click the Banned applications tab.

Next, press the Edit button to make changes to the list.

Then select the application and press the Add button. Finally, press the Save button to save the list.

Password Recovery

If there is another user who is able to access the server via the workstation application, your password can be reset by this user, provided that they have appropriate permissions to do so. If there is no such user, you must login to the machine the server runs on and reset your access using the command below:

$ flopsar-server users --reset <username> <server_home>

This operation will set the password to flopsar and also grant the specified user all the permissions.
