Sorry if this is a FAQ--I figured it would be and tried a search, but nothing came up.
Anyway, I'd like to be able to add a new user from the command line, rather than using the stupid, obnoxious NetInfo Manager GUI tool. Blecch!
I tried using niutil, just guessing at stuff to add based on props of other users, but apparently there was something missing. When I tried to su, change password, etc., I either became "nobody", or got an error to the effect "doesn't exist"
Any tools, tips, references, or magic spells?
Thanks,
Jeff
