I've tried this about a dozen times. 'adduser' does not work in Suse 7.1. Atleast not for me. How do I add another user?

'passwd' does work, which is odd if adduser does not. Oh well.

Thanks.

Maybe the command is ' useradd '. On my old red hat distro, it was ' useradd '.

You are correct. It is useradd.

Why is it different than all the others?

Thanks.

SuSE uses YaST1 to add users. (Atleast the book from the retail version of 6.4 tells you so)

You're welcome, Kazem.
