Problem using "adduser" command
bash: adduser: command not found
This command works on all my other boxes?
I'm accessing the box remotly using SSH1, but I don't think that can be the problem.
Regards,
Jason

Actually, they're one and the same. adduser is a symlink to useradd. However, if you're even somewhat interested in portability, use useradd like andutt says.

very interesting indeed.
On Freebsd it is adduser so I tend to go for that. I always wondered why they used different commands.

I always thought adduser was a front end to useradd.
