- Do NOT check the "Is Administrator" box.

- Note that the Username must follow Kerberos ID guidelines. Some characters cannot be used in Kerberos ID's. While it is possible to enter user names that are not associated with actual Kerberos ID's, these accounts cannot be accessed. Test accounts can be created by asking for Kerberos accounts for that purpose.
Thalia does not yet allow the Kerberos ID to be edited.
If you make a mistake when entering an ID, delete the user, delete the user's default Library, and try again.
You can edit the user's information at any time.
