The "useradd" script is a quick and relatively painless way to do it.
Type "man useradd". In its simplest form just go: useradd (username).
You can also manually create the home dir, edit the /etc/passwd file,
run "pwconv" to create the shadow file, edit the /etc/group file if
needed, then copy the shell init files & chown the users home dir.
Did I leave anything out? =)
Stick with the former.
