Because the admin directory is no longer included, the www directory isn't
either, and that's where the generated docs used to live. So now, make this directory include the generated docs, removing the old IPC7 and LISA-98 directories, and the .tex source files. These latter are moved to the admin repository.

+<h1><a name="SECTION0011200000000000000000">
+12 Create the site password</a>
+</h1>
+
+<p>
+There are two site-wide passwords that you can create from the command line,
+using the <b class="program">bin/mmsitepass</b> script. The first is the ``site password''
+which can be used anywhere a password is required in the system. The site
+password will get you into the administration page for any list, and it can be
+used to log in as any user. Think <code>root</code> for a Unix system, so pick this
+password wisely!
+
+<p>
+The second password is a site-wide ``list creator'' password. You can use
+this to delegate the ability to create new mailing lists without providing all
+the privileges of the site password. Of course, the owner of the site
+password can also create new mailing lists, but the list creator password is
+limited to just that special role.
+
+<p>
+To set the site password, use this command:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+ % $prefix/bin/mmsitepass &lt;your-site-password&gt;
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>
+To set the list creator password, use this command:
+
+<p>
+<div class="verbatim"><pre>
+ % $prefix/bin/mmsitepass -c &lt;list-creator-password&gt;
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>
+It is okay not to set a list creator password, but you probably do want a site
+password.
