I am using C shell if that is of any help. Look in /usr/src/contrib/FAQ/programs/adduser in the current sources on freebsd.cdrom.com (freebsd.cdrom.com:~ftp/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src). Another thing I would like to do is set up an anonymous ftp directory and to enable it. Is there a FAQ or an information file somewhere that might just explain how to do this? The man page for ftpd actually does an amazingly good job (for your typical man page) of describing exactly how to do this. The person who wrote it ought to get a medal for `most useful man page'. BTW, I know it's probably not immediately obvious, but the the comp.os.386bsd.* groups are actually where most of the FreeBSD discussions take place. Jordan
