The first time you run $PRODUCT_NAME through a web browser, it will prompt you to choose an administrative username and password. This information, which is stores in the the users.cfg file in the LogAnalysisInfo $lang_stats.directory, specifies the first user. After that, you can create additional users by editing the users.cfg file.
The administrative user (or users) must be logged in to perform any tasks where security is an issue (for instance, when specifying which log data to process, or when creating a profile). If you forget the administrator username or password, you can reset it by removing the users.cfg file, found in the LogAnalysisInfo $(lang_stats.directory).
If you wish, you can check the "save my password" when you enter the password. If you do that, $PRODUCT_NAME will save your username and password on the machine running the web browser, and will not ask you for the password if you are using that machine. Be careful, though -- anyone else using that machine will also be able to get into $PRODUCT_NAME without a password.
For more information on security in $PRODUCT_NAME, see {=docs_chapter_link('security')=}.
