The version I use is neo4j-enterprise-2.2.0-M02

My question is : How can I configure a user (like add a new user, change the password ,etc) in backend or browser, instead of REST API? Can I do it via neo4j-shell? imagine that I am a DBA, it is not very convenient to do this by REST API.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

You can use the browser instead of the API. Just go to http://localhost:7474 (or whatever IP to which the web console is bound) and you will be prompted to change the password. Once authenticated, use the command :server change-password to change the password again.

It is not yet possible to create multiple user accounts within the system.

You can use the command :help server to see available authentication commands.
