As fas as I know, the error message "adduser: Only one or two names
allowed." means that you provided more than two non-option arguments to
adduser; it has nothing to do with the number of users on your system.
What is the exact command that you used? A simple "adduser guest" should
do the trick.
Thanks for your reply.
The command that I used and triggered the error msg was: adduser guest.
According to the man page I thought also that should do the trick, but it didn't.
However, I already found a way to add another user:
adduser guest --home /home/guest
did the trick. Don't know what went wrong in the first place.
