Create the Caucus Userid |
 |
Create a new userid, called "caucus", with its own home directory, such as /home/caucus. (You may use a different name or home directory if you prefer. The installation procedure will adapt to whichever name you choose.)
The home directory for Caucus must have enough free disk space to contain all of the Caucus programs and data files, and all of the anticipated conference data. A minimum of 100 megabytes is recommended. (The software itself is less than 30 megabytes.)
Only the system manager, or a designated Caucus manager, should know the password to the Caucus userid.
