To modify a user, try ommodu, and omaddu to add a user

I did, but I don't understand what means "new authentication ID" ?
I still I didn't got a new password for the sxadmin.
Where are these passwords and users being stored (in cli interface) ?!
How can I reset a password for
1. a normal user ?
2. the sxadmin user ?
thanx in advance !

Here is a wise advice:
Don't bother trying to understand or use any of the om* scripts at this stage.
Just uninstall the whole thing, remove the /var/opt/scalix directory and start again fresh. It's much faster. Just push the enter key for all the default settings and don't change anything except for committing to a reasonable password for the database when asked (you will have to live with it for a long time later on when you do upgrades).
Also, keep in mind that if this is an "experimental" (demo/trial) system, don't ever expect or count on turning it into a "production" server. Just keep on experimenting until you make your final decision and move to the appropriate hardware configuration on a new fresh installation when the time comes.
