perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

Cong,

Create the website administrator. You only have to do it once and you don't have to use it.

To disable the other prompt, create a local user and add it to the group pssudo. That should stop the prompt from reoccurring.

Hello,

After I install perfSONAR, each time when I login to the perfSONAR node as root, it prompts to ask for creating perfSONAR web admin and perfSONAR super user, also it recommends disabling ssh root login.

Is it possible to disable this function when I login as root? I’m creating a set of test instances and will need root ssh login. These nodes will only use CLI interface, so web admin is not needed.

Thanks for the help,

Cong

There isn't a perfSONAR Website Administrator defined.

Enter the user whose account you'd like to add. Just hit enter to exit:

There isn't a perfSONAR sudo user defined. It is recommended that you create a sudo user and disable SSH root login. 

WARNING: Be sure you remember the username and password you create with this script as root will no longer be able to login via SSH once this command completes. If you are using SSH as root now, your session should continue until you logout.

Would you like to create a sudo user and disable root SSH? [yes]
