Figure 3.5 Create New User
Three additional options are available:
Use this Password for the System Administrator
If checked, the same password you have entered for the user will be used for the
system administrator root. This option is suitable for stand-alone workstations
or machines in a home network that are administrated by a single user. When not
checked, you are prompted for a system administrator password in the next step of
the installation workflow (see
root"
(page 33)).
Receive System Mail
Checking this box sends messages created by the system services to the user. These
are usually only sent to root, the system administrator. This option is useful for
the most frequently used account, because it is highly recommended to log in as
root only in special cases.
The mails sent by system services are stored in the local mailbox /var/spool/
mail/username, where username is the login name of the selected user. To
read e-mails after installation, you can use any e-mail client, for example KMail
or Evolution.
