Adding new users
I'm trying to add a new user account to my ftp server.
I used
useradd -p password -d /home/newuser -s newuser
now when he tries to log in it accepts the UID and asks for a password, when i try to enter the password it says access denied.
I'm kinda new to the ADMIN side, I inherited a huge mess from the last guy and have been trying to sort out the whole mess.
it is an FTP server but should allow ssh access.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
