v1.1, June 2009
If you wish to add a large number of users, select Import user list from the pull-down menu and
browse to locate the file containing the group list. You can upload a CSV (Comma Separated
Value) formatted file containing the user account information. The format of the file is:
name1,password1,group1,email1,uid1,quota1
name2,password2,group2,email2,uid2,quota2
name3,password3,group3,email3,uid3,quota3
:
Please note the following:
• Spaces around commas are ignored.
• The name and password fields are required.
• If a listed group account does not exist, it is automatically created.
• Group and quota are set to the defaults if not specified.
• E-mail notification is not sent to the user if the field is omitted or left blank.
• UID is automatically generated if not specified.
• Empty fields are replaced with account defaults.
Examples of acceptable formats are as follows (note that you can omit follow-on commas and
fields if you wish to accept the system defaults for those fields, or you can leave the fields empty):
