You can add an account with
```
./bin/rake admin:create
```
You can change to any user by visiting [http://localhost:4200/session/USERNAME/become](http://localhost:4200/session/USERNAME/become)

Is this related to you trying to install discourse with a no-ip hostname?
Development install of discourse isn’t really meant to be accessible on a public hostname. As it has been already mentioned by @pfaffman in your other post.

Development version doesn’t have a mailserver running so it won’t send any activation email. You can activate your account using the rake task. IIRC you don’t need to activate an account on Development version.

Please use the rake task that I showed above to create an account that does not need to be sent an activation email. It will create an active account, let you set a password, and optionally make the user an admin.
