How To Create A User In Unix Shell

Webune has Linux Dedicated Server

one of the popular questions we get from our customers is how they can create a user in their Webune Linux Dedicated Server

its very easy, the adduser command will create a user in your system

lets say we want to create a user named 'webune' with the password as webuner0cks

this is how you would do it [this example will be performed using a fedora box]

1. add user to system:
SHELL COMMAND:

2. Set webune's password::
SHELL COMMAND:
NOTE: you will be prompted to enter the password twice

done

that was easy right.
