Ok, now what??
I got my system installed and everything seems to run ok, but I cann't figure out how to add users, remove users, add users to existing groups, make new groups, etc. I figure there should be some graphical thing to do this, but I'll be damned if I can find it.
I am running fedora core 4 Any help would be really apprieciated :D |
Although the following instructions are for working at the command line instead of through a GUI, I think that you may find it useful. I think it provides a decent explantion for the various steps of setting up users for a system.

Menu-->System Settings-->Users and Groups
Check if the system-config-users rpm package is installed also, as root from the console or xterm session type; rpm -q system-config-users If available then from the console or xterm session type; system-config-users |
Did you install KDE or Gnome?
Sorry for this post, I had said the same thing as the previous post, only just a few seconds after the fact. |
OMG! Right there in front of my face. Thanx for pointing it out :)
Ok, now that I can do that, here is the problem I'm trying to fix. I cann't sudo as my user. I get the error "user is not in the sudoers list". |
You need to create a wheel group (if needed) and add yourself to this group and edit the /etc/sudoers file;
# Samples %me ALL=/sbin/mount /cdrom,/sbin/umount /cdrom %me ALL=/sbin/mount /floppy,/sbin/umount /floppy # %users localhost=/sbin/shutdown -h now |
