Hi,

Well I added a user with the adduser command in a terminal and made a password thinking I then could log in, but I could not. there was a message but I could not read it. I was not because like typing the wrong password.

So, how to create a new user in AntiX?

I was mistaken. I use the useradd command. Very basic linux I read in the manual. Now I really used adduser and succeeded.

Try using the muser utility.

Menu->Settings->Config-System
Choose User Administration

or if you prefer, in a terminal,
$sux
$'your root password'
#muser

Thank you, Anti. As you can read above I succeeded in using adduser. But your reply makes me see it was under a menu. I think before it was under Admin-->Tools wasn't it. Well, in Holland they say:"Did you not look any further then youre nose (lenght) __{{emoticon}}__
