How to Make a New User on *nix

This Tutorial is a easy tutorial for any one to follow and only takes a few seconds.

To make the new user you will need to be root or have access to the ‘sudo’ command.

To make the new user type:
sudo useradd usename
Be sure to replace ‘username’ with the user name what you would like to add.

Now you’ll probably want to set this user a password:
sudo passwd username
Be sure to replace ‘username’ with the user you would like to change/add the password for.

It will then prompt you to enter a new password and then ask you to verfiy it by typing it again.

You have now made a New user and set its password!
