When I did adduser cris, It created a new user called cris, but when I try to login to it, it asks about a password, which i never got to choose.  Can anyone help clarify how this process work?
1: adduser cris
2 su - cris
3 passwd "press enter" you'll now be able 2 enter your pass re type it
and thats it :)
