useradd -p PASSWORD -m roger ^ needs a ^ space | | what are you trying to accomplish here?
The web page where I got the command said I needed it. Said it was to create a home directory.
In any case, I tried: useradd -p password testguy
and I still can't log in at the GUI prompt with the username "testguy" and the password "password".
Do I have to specify to set up a Gnome interface for the user or something like that?
