adding users

[Guest]

Hello,

I had a question about adding new users to an existing network.
That question is, how do you add a new user to a network?
The way I was trying to is this: I went into "system settings," then
went to "name," and selecting "change." I also tried going into
"network ID" and entering the user name and domain, but when I
hit "next" it said something like "cannot find this user account on
this domain. Please make sure it exists." So, how do I create that
account?

Thanks,

Joema

the way you did is for computer name. to add a user go to the properties of my computer>local users and group.
