I figured it out, afterwards. > The user doesn't exist, thus has no password. The confusing part was "username is already taken" vs "user doesn't exist". I now get that the "username" is taken by the space but without any related "user". > > What can I do to solve this situation? > The easiest thing to do would be to register new users with whatever > usernames and then add those users as members to your sub spaces.

Demanding you to modify things serverside so I can enforce clean admin of the spaces VS I really don't want to disturb you as you already provide a wonderful service. > I would caution you that the notion of an admin user does not apply in > TiddySpace.

I meant "administration" in a way similar to what is used in *nix systems. Applied to Tiddlyspace it would become: — one "root" user has full control = access to all these spaces, barely used, protected by a 128b+ passphrase — many admin users = one-to-one relationship between admin-users and space-access, used for day-to-day maintenance of the spaces, compromised access to one space doesn't propagate to the others I need such a separation between the spaces I created because I often have to work on them in different and insecure environments. > So depending on what you are trying to achieve, you may not be able > to with the defaults. > Adjusting the defaults means changing the policies on the recipes and > bags that make up a space. You can learn about such things here: > http://tiddlyweb.peermore.com/ I'll have a look about what can be done beyond the defaults. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
