### using the web application

When someone requests access to matrix they have to provide us with a username. you will enter that username in the command below:
```
cyberian@matrix:~$ sudo register_new_matrix_user -u <persons username> -c /etc/matrix-synapse/homeserver.yaml
```
(you will be prompted to enter a password for the user)
Then send them an email like:
```
your username is:
<persons username>
your password is:
<password you typed in>
You should change your password after you log in so I don't know your
password :)
You can also add an email address to your account after you log in
```
