 4. Use the following commands to start a service instance
   export PYTHONPATH=`pwd`:${PYTHONPATH} 
   export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=archweb_dev.settings 
   python manage.py runserver

 5. The test database has a few test accounts in it.

   You can then reset the password on any of the test users by
   going into the django admin interface and doing so.
