Dear all, I am a newbie and looking into Plan 9 - now in earnest. I have been considering it for the last two years. (To make it short, I'll have a lot of questions, naturally, and I kindly ask you to be patient with me...)
Firstly, I would like to have a user. I don't like to be glenda, actually, and I would like to remove glenda alltogether. I have found many different articles on how to create a user, and somehow now I have the user nino. But I do not know how to set a password for nino. The things with auth/keyfs which I read somehow do not work. So how can I have a password? - I kindly ask you to tell me the commands. Assume you want to create a new user, what would you type at the terminal? What I did was this thing with uname nino nino, uname nino +sys and uname nino +adm. After nino has a passoword, I would like to know two things: 1st: How do you make a "normal" user? - I guess I just have to omit the +sys and +adm stuff above. 2nd: How do you make a "superuser"? - Somehow the system complained that nino has no right to change /dev/key or something thelike. Glenda could not do it, either. Adm apparently did not exist, I could not log him in anyway. I thank you in advance for your kind help. Kind regards, Nino -- Jetzt 1 Monat kostenlos!
