Download PUTTY or an SSH client of your choosing (​https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html):

You want to SSH to 18.223.100.156. (UN: admin, PW: DHC123rlp!)

To add a new user, at the prompt type:

cd /etc/trac

Then type:

htpasswd htpasswd <username you want to create>

It will prompt you to create a password and enter it twice.

Then you can type:

sudo trac-admin /var/local/lib/trac/git-dhcdemo/ permission add <username you just created> TRAC_ADMIN

Kari can then show you how to adjust any permissions needed in the admin interface.

To change a password:

Type: cd /etc/trac

Then type: htpasswd htpasswd <username of password to change>

It will then ask you to enter the new password twice.

To remove a user:

Type: cd /etc/trac

Then type: htpasswd -D htpasswd <username of password to change>
