Using 8.01 beta 4 -

Went to Users -> Add User

put in username gamma
added to group wheel
csh
gave a home directory /mnt/pool/beta
(already created, and chown'd to gamma after account creation)
set the password to 'alpha' (no quotes)
clicked OK

I logged out and tried to login (to GUI) as user gamma with the password alpha

Everytime I try to login I get 'Username and password didn't match. Please try again.

I can't be that daft!! What am I missing?

Well at least it's consistent. I tried it again on a fresh virtual test system and got the same result.

What do you mean by login? SSH?

You cannot have multiple GUI logins.. there is only one the admin

the Accounts are exclusive for unix accounts
