Hi Alex, as you proposed, I corrected UserManager = Legacy_UserManager and was able to add a user, but still, using that account in accessing the FB3.0-database from FB2.5, I get "your username and password is not defined".
Can I check whether my new user is in old format (how?). I switched UserManager back to default and restarted server before trying to connect - or does the UserManager has to remain "legacy" as long as I want to do my experiments from FB2.5?
