I just used the YaST "Security and Users" module (which requires root

I'm sure you could do that from a root command shell as well, if you're
more comfortable with that, but I haven't needed to research the
commands to do that.


Many thanks Jerry, but I need more informations about the details.

Under "User and Group Administration" I have:

erikja Erik Jakobsen 1000 uucp,dialout,video,users,vboxusers

Is that the right place ?
