In this example I’m creating a user named mikedan with a home directory of /mikedan so the command is adduser –home /mikedan mikedan.Īdduser prompts for the rest of the information, which is optional. To create a new user in Kali Linux, first pop open a Terminal window. Running as root all the time is a horrible security practice, so I recommend that you create a new user as soon as possible after installation. Sadly, Kali only creates a default root user during setup. One of the first post-installation tasks I did was to create a new user for daily use. I created a new installation of Kali Linux recently. It comes with virtually all security tools built in, it’s lightweight by default, and it has a huge ecosystem that is constantly helping with the project.įor instructor-led Security training see our course schedule.
Kali Linux is a fantastic operating system for penetration testing and security evaluation.
