How can I add a new BPM user?

[javasok]

I've tried adding my new user along with th sample users (krisv, mary, john, jack, etc) in auth/users.properties and I've also tried adding my new user with the jBoss add-user.bat script. Neither seem to work.

Pete,

I am a relative newbie to jBPM and am using 5.4.  I have a standalone setup running and have added users by putting them in the usergroups.properties file.  The new users are picked up as soon as I restart the server.  I copied that file from the jbpm-test-5.4.0.Final.jar.

The auth/users.properties file is copied when running ant install.demo.  If you do modifications afterwards, you need to stop the application and rerun the install.  You can also edit the file directly at jbpm-installer\jboss-as-7.1.1.Final\standalone\configuration and then restart the application server.  Note that this is just for demo purposes, if you reconfigure your application server you could for example use the add-user command to (dynamically) add new users, or for example configure it to an LDAP etc.

Does this mean we can use add-user.sh command to add BPM logins?  So these logins are shared between the container and business central?
