Since there are no adduser or addgroup, I guess I'd create those files manually off /etc.
I think the recommended way is using the mkpasswd command. Actually the recommended procedure is not to use anything.
Just run that command and take a look at the output. You have to filter out most lines, only add the user you want.
Now run it with --help, you'll see you can list 'local' users AND domain users. I put quotes on local because you can also specify local to which computer (as long as it is running SMB, I think).
Its about the same for groups: mkgroup. Hope this helps a little. -- R.Berber -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
