If you've followed examples above your Vault instance will have an `administrators` group with an `administrator` policy assigned to it. Users in that group will already have `write` access to `auth/token/create-orphan` so you can just use one of your `administrators` entities to follow along. + ## Clean-up If during any of the above steps you've used the Vault command-line client to authenticate against Vault with your `root` token make sure that client's `~/.vault-token` file is deleted. It contains the verbatim `root` token.
