I feel dumb for this not working, because it seems it should be really easy. I did the following:

Code:
useradd -m -G users Daniel


I was trying to add a second user so I could switch consoles and view the Install guide on the computer I'm installing, because its annoying to run back and forth, and use lots of paper and ink. After I put that in, it said:

Code:
useradd: Invalid user name 'Daniel'


What did I do wrong?

Daniel
