Hi James,
The users you create in the admin panel really don't have anything to do
with Aniwebs. First, you have to create an account on the sign-in page,
then it will email you the account password and username. You then go to
the users section of the admin panel to make the user an owner if that
person will have full privileges in the site. (The owner can change the
looks and assign access to other users).
That means your email has to be set up on your local machine and how you do
that depends on your OS. If you are running inside a firewall and you
already have an SMTP server you can connect to, just enter that name in the
admin panel. Users are tracked by Email, not username.
You can also find the password by opening in the appropriate XML file
(probably 1.xml) in /swiki/default/users. Once you log in, you can change
the password.

Apologies in advance for the newbitude of this question, but:
How do I create an ani swiki on my own server?
I set up a swiki exactly like my personal swiki, only inheriting from
ani instead of refs. Same exact settings, including the
usernames:passwords on the admin/security forms.
I get an ani swiki that I can't sign in to. Its /account page won't let
me sign in using the name:password from its security page ("That
combination of AniAniWeb ID and Password is not valid"). Neither will it
let me sign up for a new account ("unable to send confirmation
information").
I've Googled extensively but can't find *anything* related to *setting
up* an ani swiki. Any advice welcome.
Thanks,
