6.1. Plaintext

Users/Groups definitions are stored in a plaintext file (though passwords are encoded using unix crypt function).

You can edit the file "users", either being offline or reloading backend (without commiting it !) after. You should pay attention to the fact that this file should be edited carefully, and will be overwritten next time backend is commited.
