This page documents how to create users on various NSL servers. It also describes how to assign appropriate permissions to these users. You will need root/administrator privilege to perform most of the following operations.
MediaWiki
Our Media Wiki system (http://nsl.cs.sfu.ca/wiki) grants anonymous users read permission on all pages except the ones in Private: namespace. However, our Wiki system does not allow anonymous users to create new account, nor to add/edit pages. To add a new user into our Wiki system, an administrator has to perform two operations. First, the administrator creates a new user account through Wiki's special pages. Second, the administrator associate this new user with user group nsl, which is granted with permission to add/edit pages including those ones in Private: namespace. Detailed steps are given in the following.
- Click on the Special pages link at the lower right corner of any Wiki page.
- Clink on the option Login/Create Account. Notice that, you have to log in as an administrator before doing this.
- Click on the Create an Account link.
- Fill out all required info and click on Create Account. You will need to memorize the account name for the new user, which will be used later.
- Click on the Special pages link again. Click the User Right Management link at the bottom of that page.
- Type the new user name in the text field. Then click on the Edit User Groups button.
- Highlight nsl in Available Groups and click on Save User Groups. Notice that, in the screenshot Bots is highlighted but the required one is nsl.
Subversion
Bugzilla
Our Bugzilla installation (http://nsl.cs.sfu.ca/bug) is an open system, where anonymous users can create user accounts upon replaying a confirmation email.
