user creation
« on: July 03, 2010, 09:33:50 pm »
Is there a command to create users? what about raising a current users permissions?  My user is the only one that can make changes and i think it's corrupted.  I can't log into anything but everybody else can.  Root seems to be the only other user that can make changes but i can't log into the web admin with it.  I was thinking of using ssh to create a new user or give someone else permissions to create a new user. 

I literally just got this thing working awesomely, it would suck to have to reinstall right now.

Go to the system screen in the Orbiter and click on the Setup Wizard. Or in Web Admin go to Wizard - Users and click 'Create New User' at the bottom of the page.

All the best
