more users?


I just installed slackware 11 and the user that I have to login to right now is root (very bad, I know), how do I create more users to login to?

thanks

it's a good idea to get used to using google. sometimes answers don't come as fast as this, so if you're in the habit of googling, you might get something solved sooner than you would waiting around for someone to answer.
