User Management

If you wish to create/delete/modify user profiles of your computer, User Management is where you find all these tools. You can start the program by clicking on User management in ZenPanel, or by typing in userconfig as root. This is a Zenwalk-specific tool to facilitate control over the user registrations on your Zenwalk system, including the defined groups, etc.
