- If enabled, you have to login with a username and a password that has the "admin" role
- before changing the configuration or running a new build (look for the "login" link
- at the top right portion of the page).
- Configuration of user accounts is specific to the web container you are using.
- (For example, in Tomcat, by default, it looks for <tt>$TOMCAT_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml</tt>)

- If you are using Hudson in an intranet (or other "trusted" environment), it's usually
- desirable to leave this checkbox off, so that each project developer can configure their own
- project without bothering you.
- <p>
- If you are exposing Hudson to the internet, you must turn this on. Hudson launches
- processes, so insecure Hudson is a sure way of being hacked.
