To create a user account:

•
Name. User names can be a maximum of 31 characters in most non-Asian
languages. If you use Asian language characters, the limit is lower. You can use
most alphanumeric and punctuation characters for a user name. User names
cannot consist of numbers only. You cannot use @ in user names.
•
UID. The UID is a unique user ID number assigned to each user. By default, the
ID number is automatically set, but you can manually enter a number if you prefer.
•
Primary Group. From the menu, select the primary group to which the user is
assigned. The default group is called users. A group called admin is also
predefined.
