It is advisable for all Mageia installations to set a superuser or administrator's password, usually called the root password in Linux. As you type a password into the top box the colour of its shield will change from red to yellow to green depending on the strength of the password. A green shield shows you are using a strong password. You need to repeat the same password in the box just below the first password box, this checks that you have not mistyped the first password by comparing them.
Add a user here. A user has fewer rights than the superuser (root), but enough to surf the internet, use office applications or play games and anything else the average user does with his computer
: if you click on this button it will change the users icon.
Real Name: Insert the users real name into this text box.
Login Name: Here you enter the user login name or let drakx use a version of the users real name. The login name is case sensitive.
Password: In this text box you should type in the user password. There is a shield at the end of the text box that indicates the strength of the password. (See also Opomba)
Password (again): Retype the user password into this text box and drakx will check you have the same password in each of the user password text boxes.
Opomba
Any user you add while installing Mageia, will have a world readable (but write protected) home directory.
However, while using your new install, any user you add in MCC - System - Manage users on system will have a home directory that is both read and write protected.
If you don't want a world readable home directory for anyone, it is advised to only add a temporary user now and to add the real one(s) after reboot.
If you prefer world readable home directories, you might want to add all extra needed users in the Configuration - Summary step during the install. Choose User management.
