useradd- I just wanted to give a friend my notebook for a python lecture and thought I could just add him as a new user. Apparently not by default.Permanently Deleted
It's the standard editor!
Ran into this some time ago and learned that there is a more rudimentary command
adduserinstead but it does not do things like home folder creationYeah, useradd should be the default over adduser
Seems like it would have to exist to create your initial login, unless you only had a root user
You can just manually edit /etc/passwd
I haven't used that since the 90s on HP Unix. Do you get to set default permissions for file creation there, and also add user groups?
