conf/users
The conf/users file defines login details for users with access to the software. This is a single file containing details for all locally managed users of the software. The asterisk (*) in the keys represents the name of the user the key applies to, for example the key to store the applet width for the 'admin' user is user!admin!appletwidth. Users are managed under the System > Users section of the web UI. In the SOAP API and CLI users are managed using functions in the Users section.
