RE: Problem with useradd in bash

Either that, or use linuxconf
It is a nice gui, text, or web interface allows you to do all the stuff
needed to add users...and a whole lot more.

You can run locate command to find out where is useradd binary is located.
Generally you could have that in the following directories and you should be
able to execute with absolute path:

/usr/sbin/useradd
/etc/default/useradd  

Otherwise  modify PATH in /home/username/.bash_profile.
