<title>Change who has administrative privileges</title>
<p>Administrative privileges are a way of deciding who can make changes to
important parts of the system. You can change which users have admin privileges
and which ones don't. They are a good way of keeping your system secure and
preventing potentially damaging unauthorized changes.</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>Click the icon at the far right of the <gui>menu bar</gui> and select <gui>System Settings</gui>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Open <gui>User Accounts</gui>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Click <gui>Unlock</gui> and enter your password to unlock the account
settings. (To give a user admin privileges, you must have admin privileges
yourself.)</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Select the user whose privileges you want to change.</p>
</item>
<item><p>Click the label <gui>Standard</gui> next to <gui>Account type</gui>
and select <gui>Administrator</gui>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Close the User Accounts window. The user's privileges will be changed when
they next log in.</p>
</item>
</steps>
<note>
<p>The first user account on the system has admin
privileges. This is the user account that was created when you first installed
the system.</p>
<p> It is unwise to have too many users with <gui>Administrator</gui>
privileges on one system.</p>
