Adding users
 

hey

I have been using the server on our network, anyway some how I have managed to delete my user dirrectory and now I cannot log back in (ssh). I have root the password so how do I add a new user through the command line, I tried just making a new dirrectory to /home but this doesnt work. Any pointers?????

If all you did was delete the home directory for the user then try this:

mkdir /home/<user>
chown <user>:users /home/<user>

If you somehow deleted the user entirely then the adduser command will help you out.
