Linux Create User Account

To create a new user account on a Linux system, you can use the useradd command. The useradd command is a command-line utility for creating user accounts.

Here's an example of how to use the useradd command to create a new user account:

useradd newuser

This command will create a new user account with the username newuser and a default set of options.

You can also use the -c option to specify the user's full name, and the -m option to create the user's home directory:

useradd -c "Full Name" -m newuser

This command will create a new user account with the username newuser, the full name "Full Name", and a home directory at /home/newuser.

Once the user account has been created, you can use the passwd command to set the user's password:

passwd newuser
