Kita, First off, please don't write to people without also CCing the list. That way, other people can see what's going on and perhaps learn from the experiences of others. And, people make mistakes. If the entire list is seeing the discourse, any errant statements given by a single person are much more likely to be noticed and corrected. That being said, I'm still having a hard time determining the problem. Presumably, you're running as the root user when you're attempting to add these users, right? Hmmm..... well, take a look at some of the other suggestions that people have given. If you're still having problems, it would be helpful for us to know the *exact message* you're seeing when you're attempting to add and/or use these new accounts. Vague descriptions like "doesn't work" don't help us much in trying to determine *why* something isn't working. ct > Chris Tubutis wrote: > > > kita jackson wrote: > > > > > > Hello, > > > I am experiencing difficulty setting up the following: > > > superuser > > > users > > > group... > > > I have gone into the config for users but i cant seem to have any > > > success, what am i doing wrong? > > > > We don't know; why don't you try telling us what you're doing and what > > happens when you do it? > > > > ct To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
