Creating a new user in Linux or Unix is typically done with the adduser command. The basic syntax is:
adduser -g [group] -n [username]
where group is the group (admin, scanners, cups, vboxusrs, etc...) that you want the new user to be part of, and username is the name that they log in with. You will need either root access, or be part of the "sudoers"group in Ubuntu.
