SYNOPSIS

my $me = User::Identity->new(...);
my $server = User::Identity::System->new(...);
$me->add(system => $server);

DESCRIPTION
The "User::Identity::System" object contains the description of the user's presence on a
system. The systems are collected by an User::Identity::Collection::Systems object.
Nearly all methods can return undef.
METHODS
Constructors
User::Identity::System->new([NAME], OPTIONS)
Create a new system. You can specify a name as first argument, or in the OPTION list.
Without a specific name, the organization is used as name.
Option --Defined in --Default
description User::Identity::Item undef
hostname 'localhost'
location undef
name User::Identity::Item <required>
os undef
parent User::Identity::Item undef
password undef
username undef
. description => STRING
. hostname => DOMAIN
The hostname of the described system. It is prefered to use full system names,
not abbreviations. For instance, you can better use "www.tux.aq" than "www" to
avoid confusion.
. location => NICKNAME|OBJECT
The NICKNAME of a location which is defined for the same user. You can also spec-
ify a User::Identity::Location OBJECT.
. name => STRING
. os => STRING
The name of the operating system which is run on the server. It is adviced to use
the names as used by Perl's $^O variable. See the perlvar man-page for this vari-
able, and perlport for the possible values.
. parent => OBJECT
. password => STRING
The password to be used to login. This password must be un-encoded: directly
usable. Be warned that storing un-encoded passwords is a high security list.
. username => STRING
The username to be used to login to this host.
Attributes

ture. If no location is specified, undef is returned.

DIAGNOSTICS
Error: $object is not a collection.
The first argument is an object, but not of a class which extends User::Identity::Col-
lection.
Error: Cannot load collection module for $type ($class).
Either the specified $type does not exist, or that module named $class returns compi-
lation errors. If the type as specified in the warning is not the name of a package,
you specified a nickname which was not defined. Maybe you forgot the 'require' the
package which defines the nickname.
Error: Creation of a collection via $class failed.
The $class did compile, but it was not possible to create an object of that class
using the options you specified.
Error: Don't know what type of collection you want to add.
If you add a collection, it must either by a collection object or a list of options
which can be used to create a collection object. In the latter case, the type of col-
lection must be specified.
Warning: No collection $name
The collection with $name does not exist and can not be created.
