OK - using the WWW password I was able to access the Admin area. I used another virual console to log in as guest and submit a request for a regular account, and then went back to Admin on the csuite login and went through the procedure for activating the account. That whole setup for handling accounts seems to work well. During installation, I modified the data on Chebucto user and membership classes to reflect Seattle Community Network uses. The modifications showed up on the screens for administering accounts, but the changes were not present during the registration process seen by a guest user - and I wonder if this is a bug, or due to some error of mine during installation. I noticed that the standard user account I created was assigned an account name of aa001 - reasonable, since there were no other Chebucto accounts on the machine. However, does the csuite administrator have a way to set the starting point for new account IDs? I know that during installation, there is a place where a range of UID numbers is assigned for Chebucto accounts, but what about account names? Our existing SCN system is well through the bb-bz series, and we would probably want new Chebucto accounts to start with cc, for instance. Another item - there is a set time interval for the cron job that processes the activation of user accounts. For test purposes, it would be convenient to decrease the lag time to a few minutes. Can this be done just by editing the crontab, or is there a way to modify the time from the csuite Admin interface?
