Question

I have installed Linux Red Hat v.5 update 6 on WMware. During installation where were no dialog to put login. But the installation finished it require to type login. How can I know what it is?

Was it helpful?

Solution

The installation process will have prompted you to enter a password for the root account. At first log in you can use the username root and whatever password you used during installation. Then you can use useradd or a GUI (or scripts or whatever you like to use) to make more user accounts.

OTHER TIPS

Linux will prompt for root password while installation if you used normal distro. Please try to login with root and the given password , then you can create new user from shell or GUI ( if you installed GUI packages)
