Staff

PiNet supports two levels of user permissions.

  • Pupil
  • Staff

On the Raspberry Pis themselves there are very few differences between the two permission levels.
On the server though is a different story.
Staff have full access to PiNet control panel, Epoptes control panel and are administrators (sudo) on the server.

Members of the staff group should keep their login credentials secure and use a strong password.

Adding a member of staff

  1. Create the user as normal through the Create-user option in Manage-users.
  2. Select Add-staff from the Manage-users menu.
  3. Enter the username of the user you want to add to the staff group and hit enter.
