Adding user log in

[Mustang64]

OK - I must be missing something! :oops:

I did the "adduser" bit for my two sons, giving them a user name and password. My hope was to reboot the computer and they would need to "log in" to be able to use my computer.

NOT! :evil:

It still goes directly to (without passing GO) the "Knoppix" user! :(

Now, I don't mind being called "Knoppix", just don't call me late for dinner! But I don't want my boys (9 and 10) to have the same access I have. I also don't want them modifying my documents...

This is a hard drive install from a live CD. And YES, the installation did ask me for a USER name and password during install. What happend to THAT user???

!!!!HELP!!!! (Didn't want to yell :lol: )

Is this a debian or knoppix style install?
If debian, check in "Control Center -> System Administration -> Login Manager -> Convenience" if you have "Automatic Login" checked.

This is a Knoppix install from the live CD ver 3.3

I've only done debian style installs where adding users is no problem.
I don't know if you can add users with a knoppix style install? I remeber seeing something about it on this forum, but can't remember where :(
