NAME
btadmin - Creates and updates the Zen user authentication file.

SYNOPSIS
btadmin [ -p password ] [ a+ | a- ] [ -r ] username

DESCRIPTION
btadmin is used to create and update the flat-file btpasswd used to store user names and password for authentication of Zen users. Users that have the "admin" attribute set can monitor engine status and configure the engine remotely, if PAM authentication is not used. All other users (without "admin" privileges) can connect to the MKDE engine remotely if "BTPASSWD" authentication mode is enabled (see mkded(1)).

OPTIONS

-p  Specify the password. If this option is not specified, you will be prompted to enter the password.

a+  turn "admin" attribute on for this user

a-  turn "admin" attribute off for this user

-r  remove username from btpasswd file

username
    The user name to create or update in the btpasswd file. If username does not exist is this file, an entry is added. If it does exist, the password is changed.
