create a directory for the new user (eg. 'mkdir /usr/home/newuser')

then

use the command 'vipw'

and add your user(s) at the end of the file. Insert a * for password:

newuser:*:504:500::0:0:Name of the user:/usr/home/newuser:/bin/csh
insert the user and group id for your requirement. My users are 500+... and
i have a group 'users' (500).


Set the users password with 'passwd newuser'

dont forget 'chown -R newuser.thegroup /usr/home/newuser'



good luck !

Oliver
