Caringo: User guide

To add another user for use in the portal you can do the following.

First add the user to the local users on the cloudscaler machine with a

               useradd testuser

make sure they have a valid password

then once they’re added you can add them to the root policy.json in the /etc/caringo/cloudgateway/policy.json file

In a production environment you would be creating a domain with an overall admin user like the caringoadmin one and then granting permissions via the policy.json to other named users to login. The other way would be to add the testuser as a member of a group which has access , so in the policy.json I think there is a caringoadmins group, if you create that and add users to it any user that is a member of that group would have full admin rights on the content portal. The way to define in that case what to log into is via dns. The user would specify the domain name that they have access to so http://matthew.cloud.boston.com/_admin/portal for example which will only show them their lower level domain that they have access to.
