The problems you have with xerte toolkit seem to revolve around user
management/user authentication<br>
<br>
Xerte Toolkits does not provide user management, it relies on other
systems to provide user authentication. The following options are
available at the moment:<br>
<br>
1. ldap (the default). You could try to install an ldap server and add
users to ldap. It is not for the faint hearted. An example of a ldap
server is the Active Directory Service of Windows servers. There are
several open source solutions as well<br>
2. moodle. With the moodle patch you can use the moodle user management
and moodle user database withing Xerte Toolkits. But..., you have to
have moodle installed on the same server for this to work.<br>
3. Simple authentication using fixed users in a .php file. There are
two files present in the installation directory. demo.txt (doesn't
require authentication) and switch.txt (contains 4 fixed users). If you
want to use those, you copy them over the existing index.php. If using
switch.txt, you have to change the users and passwords in that file.<br>
<br>
Hope this clarifies things for you.<br>
