+== Adding Users (optional) ==
+
+You need to create the password file in the same place you specified it in the apache config file (the line above that reads "/somewhere/trac.htpasswd").  
+
+Use the following commands to create the password file (do 'man htpasswd' to see all the options):
+{{{
+# cd /somewhere
+# htpasswd -c trac.htpasswd admin
+New password: <type password>
+Re-type new password: <type password again>
+Adding password for user admin
+}}}
+
+After the first user, you dont need the "-c" option anymore:
+{{{
+# htpasswd trac.htpasswd john
+New password: <type password>
+Re-type new password: <type password again>
+Adding password for user john
+}}}
+
+After you create the users, you can set their permissions using TracPermissions.
