Adding user accounts

From Powers Wiki

When new group members join, they'll need access to our file and program server on both Windows and Linux, and a few odds and ends. Here's how to get that done the right way.

FIRST: Have the user decide on a username and password that they will re-enter continuously during this process.

Windows

Creating the account

  • Log in to the user's workstation on an existing account, and use the Control Panel to create a new Administrator account.
  • Add a password to the newly created account. Make sure the user can remember their password.
  • Log out and back into the new account.
