How to Create a Non-root User in Kali Linux


Steps:

Here I am creating a new user with User name name and password 12345678

1.  Open Terminal and type the following command and replace 
     'name' with your desired User name.

            useradd -m name                                                                                                
     where   -m  create the user's home directory.

2.   Now to set a password , use passwd command with your 
      user name.

          passwd name                                                                                                                                                    
       Then it will ask you to Enter Password and again to confirm it.
   
       that's done. Now try out by logging out of your account and 
        login with your new user account.
