== Adding accounts on other machines ==

+

Please '''do not create accounts directly with useradd/userdel'''. Instead:

+

* Log into sunjammer forwarding your ssh agent (ssh -A)

+

* Become root with `sudo -i`

+

* Run this shell script to create a user and copy the credentials from sunjammer:

+

remote-useradd <remotehost> <user> <groups...>

+

Typically, you'll want to add users to groups `sudo`, `adm`, `libvirtd` and `docker`.
