Hi, I have a few questions, but I fear that they are going off topic for speakup related questions. Is there another list I should be posting these type questions too that is blink related? Here are a few questions to give you an idea how do you add a new user to the system? useradd or adduser username -p password is there some scripts or text based programs that I can install to make admin tasks easier. it seems debian had some nice text based menu driven utils that I don't seem to find in rh 7.1. Thanks.
