Account Definition Item
An account definition item, located in the SYSTEM Dictionary, enables a user to log on to the account it identifies. It is a D-pointer to the account's Master Dictionary (MD), so named because attribute 1 contains the letter 'D'. This item defines the location of the MD in the host system partition/file system, the account creation parameters and a number of security features that restrict access to the specified account. There can only be one D-pointer per account MD.
