==User Manager==
yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-userpanel [Panels are in separate rpms]
server-manager > remote access > user panel access
The User Manager has two functions.
*Selected /server-manager panels can be delegated to users.
*Users can be given access to configure personal settings for themselves.
===Delegation===
To delegate panels to users on your internal network, open /server-manager > User Panel Access
Select a user to grant additional rights, users with extra panels granted are shown in Red.
You can select the global user to allow everyone to access specific panels, or a group to allow all the users in that group access.
Check the box next to the functions you wish to allow.
The userpanel-* functions are designed for users, although you may not want to assign all functions. By default the change password and email forwarding are allowed for all users, you can change this with the global user.
===User Functions===
Panels specifically for users are available in separate rpms, see below.
After the panels have been installed and delegated by admin, they are available for users at either <br>
<nowiki>https://www.yourserver.net/user-manager</nowiki> or<br>
<nowiki>https://www.yourserver.net/user</nowiki><br>
