Adding a User and Changing Password

After installing the Pramati Server, you may want to add users and change the default

password. For information on how to add and configure Groups and Realms, read the

chapter ‘Configuring Security for Pramati Server’ in the Pramati Server 4.1 Administration

Guide.

Adding User

To add a user using the Console:

1 Start and connect to Server.

2 Connect to the Administration console using a browser by typing the URL http://<host-

name>:<port-number>/admin/. For example, if the server is installed locally with default

HTTP port, the URL would be http://localhost:8181/admin/. This brings up the web-

based Administration Console login screen. The default username and password are root

and pramati respectively.

3 On the Console, select Configure > Security in the Explore panel.

4 Click ‘Settings’ for an existing realm.

5 Under the Groups section, click ‘Add User’. This leads you to the ‘Security > Realm >

User’ screen for adding a user. Provide the following details for the new user:

Click ‘Save’. This adds the user to the selected group, that shows an increment in its

number of Users field. Clicking the Group name link displays the details for the User.

If no Group has been selected while adding the User, he is added to the ‘Everybody’ group,

and can be later on assigned to any group.

To make changes to the password and the group fields, click edit against the selected user.
