| <a name="Creating User Accounts"></a><div class="section"><h2>Creating User Accounts</h2> |
| <p>User accounts are shared across services. A common user repository is shared across James |
| services. That is, once you've created a POP3 mail account and set a password, that same |
| account is available for authenticated SMTP and NNTP.</p> |
| <a name="Before You Add Accounts"></a><div class="section"><h3>Before You Add Accounts</h3> |
| <p>In James, user accounts are created throught the RemoteManager. So, after installation is complete, the first step to adding users |
| is to configure the RemoteManager. More information on RemoteManager configuration can be found |
| <a href="remotemanager_configuration.html">here</a>. You will need to have configured at least one administrator account and |
| ensured that the RemoteManager is enabled.</p> |
| <p>Also, you need to make sure that your user repository configuration is correct before adding any users. If |
| you change your user repository type (i.e. file to database) or the configuration of your user repository |
| (i.e. the file or database URL) after you have added users, you may lose your user data. Please change these |
| values with care.</p> |
| <p>After you've done this, restart James to ensure that any changes you've made in the configuration are incorporated into |
| the running system. You are now ready to create user accounts.</p> |
| </div> |
| <p>Once James is up and listening, adding a user is simple:</p> |
| 1. Telnet to the host and port on which the RemoteManager is listening. For command-line telnet clients |
| this is generally done by typing "telnet <host> <pass>" where <host> is the James |
| hostname and <port> is the RemoteManager port specified in the James config.xml.<br></br><br></br> |
| 2. You will be prompted for your administrator userid and password. Enter the values you specified |
| in the James config.xml.<br></br><br></br> |
| 3. After logging in, type "adduser <user> <password>" where <user> is the user name |
| and <password> is the password of the account you wish to create. Please note that the user name |
| should NOT be a complete email address. Rather, all email addresses of the form <user>@<domain> |
| (where <domain> is any of the values specified in the <servernames> block) will be delivered to |
| this account by default. Mailet configuration can change this default behavior.<br></br><br></br> |
| 4. Repeat step 3 for all user accounts you wish to create. |
| <p>That's it. Your user accounts are now created and can be used by all James services.</p> |
