Adding User Accounts and Passwords
You can add a user account and password if you log in to the server computer.
To add a user account:
1 Log in to the server computer as root, open a terminal window, and type the following:
qtpasswd <user-name>
Alternatively, use sudo to execute the command as root.
2 Enter a password for the user and reenter it when prompted.
Adding or Deleting Groups
You can edit the /Library/QuickTimeStreaming/Config/qtgroups file with any text editor
as long as it follows this format:
<groupname>: <user-name1> <user-name2> <user-name3>
For Windows, the path is c:\Program Files\Darwin Streaming Server\qtgroups. For other
supported platforms, it is /etc/streaming/qtgroups.
To add or delete a group, simply edit the group file you set up.
Making Changes to the User or Group File

To delete a user from a user or group file:
1 Log in to the server computer as administrator and use a text editor to open the user
or group file.
2 Delete the user name and encrypted passwords line from the user file.
3 Delete the user name from the group file.
To change a user password:
1 Log in to the server computer as root, open a terminal window, and type the following:
