| Edit the various settings in config.yml. See [[EMEN2/config.yml]]. Primarily, you will want to check the path and network settings.

Command arguments for the local database go before "--", arguments to the cloning script go after ("--defs") You will be prompted for two sets of credentials. First, an NCMI DB account, and second, the root password for the local database. If you do not have an NCMI DB account, you may specify "anonymous" as the username, and your email address as the password. 6.
