Hi !

Is there any command like 'useradd' and 'groupadd' on cygwin ?

Thanks a lot
Venu

No.  Cygwin piggybacks off of NT/W2K's capabilities in this area.  Create
new users and groups using those facilities and then update /etc/passwd
and /etc/group with mkpasswd and mkgroup.  On 9x/Me, well, you know how 
it is... ;-)
