[Server-devel] XS testing/deployment

[Tim Moody]

root password and various config params are supplied automatically.)
  a.. Create an account for yourself (this is a test of basic network 
connectivity as well):
/etc/sysconfig/olpc-scripts/mkaccount wad 
http://dev.laptop.org/~wad/dsa_public_key
passwd wad
