How to set password for new user

Hi, I'm new to OpenDCIM. After adding a new user, how can they log in if there is no password? How do I set a password for them?

Hi,

To add a user in OpenDCIM, if you use Apache (default installation on Linux) this happens on the terminal
You create an OpenDCIM user "Alex" in OpenDCIM
On Linux terminal - Apache server -
use the command: htpasswd yourDirFolderOpendcim/.htpasswd user
"htpasswd /opt/openDCIM/opendcim/.htpasswd Alex"
then follow the instructions
if user right error then "sudo htpasswd /opt/openDCIM/opendcim/.htpasswd Alex"
then reload Apache
"sudo systemctl reload apache2"
or restart the Apache service
"sudo systemctl restart apache2"
good job !!!
