There are two commands you will need in order to add users in linux: useradd and passwd. For example, if you want to add a user named tom, you would type
sudo useradd tom
and to set the password you would type
sudo passwd tom
The sudo command is necessary if you are not logged in as root. If you are not a member of the sudoers file, you can change to the root account by typing
su
and then logging in.
Remember that there are important files that will be created or changed when you add a user. These are
/etc/passwd
/etc/shadow
/etc/default/useradd
/home/tom
/etc/
