Normally this programm should be called "useradd" ;)

Thanks, I added a user 'pecan'. But I can't figure out how to run as pecan.
It's funny my unix book didn't even show me how to add a user.

andLinux boots as root. When I use the X termininal app to login as pecan, the file manger still starts up as root.

Very confusing. Do you always have to run as root in andLinux?
That wouldn't help me debug CB very well.

This should do the trick:

--- Code: ---su pecan -

--- End code ---

yes, the startup of andLinux is a bad hack:

   the xfce panel is started from the
   startwindowsterminalsession script


andLinux boot startup files:

/etc/inittab
   #Startup application
   C0::respawn:/usr/bin/X11/startwindowsterminalsession

/usr/bin/X11/startwindowsterminalsession
   termcommand=`cat /etc/winterm`
   ...
   sux - root ${termcommand} $parameters

/etc/winterm
   /usr/bin/xfce4-panel



i removed the execution of startwindowsterminalsession from /etc/inittab
and then andLinux just boots and i do a login to my user
with putty terminal from windows. this works just fine.

if i need xfce i start it from another shell script with user-rights.

brgds, tiwag

thanks tiwag, I'll make those mods today.
andLinux really makes it convienient to do the CB write/test/modify cycle.
I installed samba, and now have shared file accessabilty with windows. Very convenient.
