 ## Synapse & email
 
 It is recommended to configure an email account for Synapse, which can be used for email validation, and password resets. To do so, edit `homeserver.yaml` using the options available in the [official docs](https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#email), and then reload Synapse.

-## Creating an admin user
-
-To create an admin user use the command [register_new_matrix_user](https://manpages.debian.org/testing/matrix-synapse/register_new_matrix_user.1.en.html) within the `compose-synapse` Docker container. Example:
-
-```
-register_new_matrix_user -u dcomms-admin --admin -c /data/homeserver.yaml
-```
-
-## User registration and registration tokens
-
-By default, Synapse is configured to require registration tokens to sign up. Synapse servers with open registrations are strongly discouraged, as they can result in severe spam and abuse. To generate a registration token you can follow the official API docs to [API access token](https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/administration/admin_api/index.html#making-an-admin-api-request), and then also to [generate a registration token](https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/administration/admin_api/registration_tokens.html). Example from cli of the dComms host:
-
-```curl
-user@dcomms-demo:~/dcomms-docker-compose# curl -X POST --header "Authorization: Bearer syt_abc123" http://localhost:8008/_synapse/admin/v1/registration_tokens/new -d '{}'
-{"token":"abc123","uses_allowed":null,"pending":0,"completed":0,"expiry_time":null}
-```
-
-Once you have generated a registration token, this can be handed out to users and they can sign-up.
