How do I add or delete user accounts?

users adduser gui

Solution 1:

As JPbuntu has alluded to, adduser and deluser are the recommended ways to add and remove users on an Ubuntu system from the command line.

Graphically, you can add and remove users in the GNOME Control Center. Or you may prefer the users-admin utility ("Users and Groups"), which gives you greater configurability. users-admin is not present by default--to get it, install the gnome-admin-tools Install gnome-admin-tools package.

Solution 2:

You can open the system preferences (top right gear symbol). There is the user program. This is a GUI Tool for adding and changing users.

You can also generate a random password:
