I created a user without a password when I installed Mandrake 9.0 but now I want to create another user without a password and I can't figure how to do it. CaKiwi

There are a number of ways. Assuming that you're using KDE as your interface, go to the Mandrake Control Center, System, Users, Add
 
Thanks for the reply smah

I tried that method and several others, including using the passwd command after I had created the user but it will not let me enter no password. CaKiwi
