How do I create a user with a blank password in Lubuntu? It seems that a password with a certain length is required when you create a new user. How do I avoid that?
Why would you want a user without a password? That's just asking for trouble specially if this machine is on the Internet or a network. Why not setup a password for the user but have them auto-login. If you still want to have that done, then just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command(s) below:
sudo useradd <user_name>
sudo passwd -d <user_name>
To enable auto-login, create the user, type in a password, and check Don't ask for password on login.
