Adding A New User D1361601579 Amycroftiv #Creating a new user typically requires three steps: # * Create the user on the file server # * Create the user on the authentication server(not required for # standalone terminals) # * When the user logs in the first time, he should execute # /sys/lib/newuser # #FILE SERVER # #To create a new user, first create the user on the file server. When #running fossil(4), you can use # #! con -l /srv/fscons # #to connect to the file server console. To disconnect, type ctl-\ and #then type q at the >>> prompt. Type enter to see a prompt. # #Fossilcons(8) describes the fossil console commands in detail. To #create a new user run(replacing with the desired user name): # #! uname # #To allow the user to make changes to the system (configuration) #files, which are writable by group sys, add the user to sys: # #! uname sys + # #And similarly if desired for the files in /adm: # #! uname adm + # #If you are using the (old) WORM-based file server, the equivalent #commands are # #! newuser #! newuser sys + # #See fs(8) for details. # #AUTH SERVER # #If you are running a Plan 9 auth server, you will also need to #create an account on the authentication server, using #auth/changeuser (see auth(8)). This step is not required for a #standalone machine. # #SETUP # #When the user logs in for the first time, he or she should run #/sys/lib/newuser to create a minimal Plan 9 home directory. # #SEE ALSO # #fossil(4), users(6), fossilcons(8), newuser(8), auth(8) #
