Hi again, I figured out that the way to create a user account is to leave the 'allow users to sign up' box ticked initially, set up an account with all rights, the remove the tick. (perhaps that as too obvious for me to see...) However, my question about the configuration of Jenkins in Jetty is still open - is it right to add the real name to the Jenkins web.xml? It did not work before I changed this and now seems to work but before I deploy this on a production server I would like to know I am not holding the wrong end of the stick.
