How do I add a "normal" system user to an E-Smith server.

I am not looking to add mail boxes or i-bays I wish to add a user simular to admin and root.

Alt F2 to get to the command line log in as root
useradd -newuser name here-
passwd -newuser name here-

I thought I recalled reading somewhere that those functions had been disabled ?
