I enter "user1" as the username. But
when I use this user, it does not get into the
windowing environment. It displays a couple of error
messages on the screen. The directory for the user
is empty. And I can not run the /sys/lib/newuser
on that terminal like screen.
that terminal is where you're supposed to run /sys/lib/newuser. do
you get an error when you do that?
/sys/lib/newuser populates your directory creating bin/ lib/ and tmp/
and copying a standard lib/profile in it. it is this file that sets
up your environment.
if, for whatever reason you can't get /sys/lib/newuser to go, try
this by hand:
mkdir /usr/user1/bin
mkdir /usr/user1/bin/386
mkdir /usr/user1/bin/rc
mkdir /usr/user1/lib
mkdir /usr/user1/tmp
cp /usr/glenda/lib/profile /usr/user1/lib/profile
cp /usr/glenda/bin/rc/* /usr/user1/bin/rc
that should give you the same start menu as glenda (without the first
email she has).
