I go through the whole bit of adduser -s but it asks "user names must match reguilar expressions [regext] " ... I dont even remember that happening when i use to add users or i might just be going insane, anyways i put in regext or the username or something but when i finaly get through the other 4 questions on there and get to acually try to add the user it says it must follow the expression ... I decided to beat my head agenst my desk to see if i could knock something lose, anyone wanna help with this? i have added users before ( back when i first got everything installed about 2 years ago) and have not really needed to since, but now im trying again..
