[rabbitmq-discuss] Silly Question...Delete Guest User?

Hi Chris,

It depends on what you mean by safe.  There's certainly no harm in
deleting guest and you'll probably want to do that eventually anyway,
but you do need a user to connect to the broker.

All of our clients use username guest and password guest as defaults.

You can delete guest and, if you change your mind, you can re-add him
with:
   rabbitmqctl add_user guest guest
   rabbitmqctl set_permission guest '.*' '.*' '.*'

Cheers,
Alex
