Overview

Administration of users for a pulse™ server is possible via the "users" tab of the "administration" section of the web interface.

Note that pulse™ supports user management via an external LDAP server, see the LDAP User Management page for details.

Choosing Logins

Whenever possible, a user's login should be chosen to match their login name in your SCM. If this is not possible, the user will need to configure one or more aliases to access features such as viewing their latest changes.

If using LDAP, your pulse™ user logins must match their LDAP logins.

Granting Privileges

To grant users additional privileges, including the authority to access the "administration" section and to configure projects, you must add the user to a group.

Changing a User's Password

If a user forgets their password, any administrator can change it by using the "set password" link in the user's row of the "users" table. You will be presented with a form that accepts a new password and confirmation.
