ruel,

as jonathan writes useradd doesn't exist.
it is however, an 'option' of pw and can be used through that.

jonathan is also correct in saying that freebsd is one of the best
documented systems ever!!

just man pw and you'll find useradd and all sorts of other goodies!

I think "useradd" is history now, but I believe it still is present in
Linux. It's not in the -CURRENT FreeBSD.

Ruel

You really need to start reading the documentation. FreeBSD is about the best 
documented operating system and environment there is, and the Handbook will 
tell you just about everything you need to know.

If you keep coming to freebsd-questions and expecting to be spoon-fed answers 
you've obviously made no effort to look for, people will start to lose 
patience.

The main difference between useradd and adduser is that useradd doesn't exist 
(at least, not on any of the FreeBSD boxes I'm running which range from 4.9 
(hideous legacy cruft) to 6.3).
