Adding users via CLI

[BillP]

I can successfully add users via the CLI:

apc>user -n bob -pw wezapu -pe Administrator -e enable
E000: Success
apc>

And modify the existing Device and Read-Only users:

apc> user -n Device -pe Device -pw secret -e enable

E000: Success

apc>

But I am not able to modify the default Administrator account

apc>user -n apc -cp apc -pw secret -pe Administrator -e enable
E102: Parameter Error
Usage: user --  Configuration Options
    user -n [-cp  ] (Req. For Super User Account)

Hi,

Is the user enable prior to you entering the change password command? If so you need to enter 

user -n apc -cp apc -pw secret

Ahh, I see, no need to 'enable' the Administrator user, if it is already enabled.

Yup, that works, thank you.
