``SECRET_KEY``. This is a Django specific setting which is used to provide a

seed in secret-key hashing algorithms. Set this to a random string of your

.. code-block:: console

    ASTAKOS_COOKIE_DOMAIN = '.example.com'

The ``ASTAKOS_COOKIE_DOMAIN`` should be the base url of our domain (for all

services). ``ASTAKOS_BASE_URL`` is the astakos top-level URL.

    CLOUDBAR_LOCATION = 'https://node1.example.com/static/im/cloudbar/'

Those settings have to do with the black cloudbar endpoints and will be

described in more detail later on in this guide. For now, just edit the domain

the "welcome" door of Astakos, then you have successfully setup Astakos.

Let's create our first user. At the homepage click the "CREATE ACCOUNT" button

    root@node1:~ # snf-manage user-list

This command should show you a list with only one user; the one we just created.

.. code-block:: console

When running in production, the activation is done automatically with different

types of moderation, that Astakos supports. You can see the moderation methods

(by invitation, whitelists, matching regexp, etc.) at the Astakos specific

him/her an activation email. See how to do this at the :ref:`User

activation <user_activation>` section.

your browser again. Try to sign in using your new credentials. If the astakos

menu appears and you can see your profile, then you have successfully setup

Astakos.

   PITHOS_SERVICE_TOKEN = 'pithos_service_token22w=='

   # Set to False if astakos & pithos are on the same host

The ``ASTAKOS_BASE_URL`` option informs the Pithos app where Astakos is.

The Astakos service is used for user management (authentication, quotas, etc.)

.. code-block:: console

The token has been generated automatically during the :ref:`Pithos service

registration <services-reg>`.

.. code-block:: console

    CLOUDBAR_LOCATION = 'https://node1.example.com/static/im/cloudbar/'

The ``CLOUDBAR_LOCATION`` tells the client where to find the astakos common

cloudbar.

.. code-block:: console

    root@node2:~ # pithos-migrate history

    165ba3fbfe53 -> 2a309a9a3438, fix statistics negative population

Servers Initialization

Open your browser and go to the Astakos homepage:

Login, and you will see your profile page. Now, click the "pithos" link on the

top black cloudbar. If everything was setup correctly, this will redirect you

   # Set to False if astakos & cyclades are on the same host

   CYCLADES_PROXY_USER_SERVICES = False

The ``ASTAKOS_BASE_URL`` denotes the Astakos endpoint for Cyclades,

which is used for all user management, including authentication.

Since our Astakos, Cyclades, and Pithos installations belong together,

they should all have identical ``ASTAKOS_BASE_URL`` setting

(see also, :ref:`previously <conf-pithos>`).

Edit ``/etc/synnefo/20-snf-cyclades-app-cloudbar.conf``:
