Subject: Re: adding users in RaQ

| I've found an adduser, useradd and groupadd in usr/sbin. But trying to
| use them produces no results. I can add users and groups by editing the
| respective files Bryan mentioned, but not knowing a whole lot of what
| I"m doing - and trying to follow this Samba cookbook approach, I find it
| difficult to add users and passwords.
|
| I'm wondering how to 'activate'? these commands. I tried chmod a+x
| <filename> off some help website and no luck there.
|
| Maybe I'm not getting root access to them. My prompt looks like [root
| /]#, as I've telnetted in as admin and then typed su and entered the
| password. But I am able to do lots of other stuff...
|
| Any help? hmmm... lunchtime.. later..
|
| cheers, JD
