4 Configure The eBox Firewall
In the next step we want to open port 22 (SSH) again in the firewall. Go to Firewall -> Packet Filter -> Configure default rules:
Under Services, select ssh and Allow and click on Add:

After you have clicked on the red rectangle, another screen comes up telling you to save the configuration which is a little bit long winded. Anyway, click on Save:
Afterwards, you can access your system on port 22 (SSH) again.
5 Change Your eBox Password
Go to System -> General and change your eBox password:
6 Date And Time Settings

Then enter some NTP servers, e.g. pool.ntp.org and time.nist.gov. Click on Change. Don't forget to click on the red Save changes rectangle afterwards:

8 Create Users
eBox lets you also create users that can be put in the groups you created before, thus inheriting the group permissions, but you can also assign individual permissions to each user. In this example, I create two users: tim in the group techdpt and bob in the group salesdpt:
