Creating Users
 
I am having the darndest time trying to creat users on my box. How do I do it? I have tried to go through userconf and add a user name but when I click on add I get an error that says user cannot be created. Is there any other way? Could someone just point me in a direction that will explain a way to add users quickly and easily?

from a command prompt: adduser or useradd

man adduser for more details.

first , you must be root id
and then you can use command like this

useradd mrsolo
passwd mrsolo
then enter the password for mrsolo twice
