    Description:
    In our Aleph 18 installation we want to use util sdbdesc.sh (as described in Appendix C, Create Source Database Files List and
    Sizes) in Aleph Installation Kit.pdf.

    We get this message:

    ERROR: Wrong User, aleph user required, exits

    Resolution:
    Your Aleph 18 installation (done by Ex Libris Germany) does not have user aleph but user m181.

    The following file was locally changed to solve the problem:

    >>pwd
    /exlibris/ftp_from_exlibris/sdbdesc
    >>diff createSrcDbDescMain.bash.save createSrcDbDescMain.bash
    8,10c8,10
    < if [ "${USER}" != "aleph" ] ; then
    < LOG "ERROR: Wrong User, aleph user required, exits"
    < ERROR "Execute $0 requires aleph user...aborting" "$0"
    ---
    > if [ "${USER}" != "m181" ] ; then
    > LOG "ERROR: Wrong User, m181 user required, exits"
    > ERROR "Execute $0 requires m181 user...aborting" "$0"
