Creating a new account

Users of Bugzilla are automatically redirected to a login page, unless they have previously logged into the system and accepted a 'cookie' with which they identify themselves. The login page has a link called "Create a new account" which will direct users to the account creation page.

Alternatively, by clicking on this link, users can follow a shortcut directly to the account creation page.

Creating a new account is very simple. The account creation page has two fields. In the first, a valid email account must be given. The second asks for a name by which the user wishes to be known. After a user fills out these two fields, clicking on the button labeled "Create Account" will cause a new account to be created and an email sent to the address given in the email field. The email will contain the password used to identify this user.
