Create user account in snorby via CLI

[Mark Chennell]

I need to create a new user account for snorby, as we initially build the box 6 months back to test and eval and now we have come to log back into the snorby interface and cannot.

Icannot login with any of the user accounts,

When i try the reset password procedure https://code.google.com/p/security-onion/wiki/Passwords it does not find any other user accounts:

snort@ukocsnorbyman:/opt/snorby$ sudo RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails c
[sudo] password for snort:
Jammit Warning: Asset compression disabled -- Java unavailable.
Loading production environment (Rails 3.1.10)
irb(main):001:0> u = User.find_by_email("mchennell@XXXXX")
=> nil


Is it possible to create a new user account or someone else have any other ideas?

Many thanks

Mark

I know this is an older post, but it helped me and I had some things to add that I changed.

Background: I'm writing a BASH script to add an account in every tool for a new analyst.

My BASH test lines with info hard-coded:
cd /opt/snorby/
sudo RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails runner 'User.create(:name => "Test", :email => "te...@test.com", :password => "password", :password_confirmation => "password", :admin => true)'

My BASH script lines with variables:
cd /opt/snorby/
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails runner 'User.create(:name => "'"$userDisplay"'", :email => "'"$userName@$userDomain"'", :password => "'"$userPass"'", :password_confirmation => "'"$userPass"'", :admin => false)'
cd ~
