APPENDIX A INFORMATION FOR USERS NOT FAMILIAR WITH LINUX

Users and Passwords

A username and password are necessary to log in to the Cyclades-TS. The user “root” is predefined, with a

password tslinux. A password should be configured as soon as possible to avoid unauthorized access.

Type the command:

passwd

to create a password for the root user.

To create a regular user (without root privileges), use the commands:

adduser

user_name

passwd

user_name

NOTE: If you do not use a combination of upper and lower case letters and numbers, and between 5 and 8

characters for the password, you will get a warning, but it will still be accepted.

To log out, type “logout” at the command prompt.
