Hi,
I have successfully installed Ubuntu 11.10 few days ago and also installed virtual box. But the fact is if I want to access flash drive in virtual application, I must have to add virtual box user to the Ubuntu. So please anyone suggest me how I will add user privileges in Ubuntu 11.10
Thanks.

Hi,
To add a user in Ubuntu 11.10 follow the steps given below:
1. Use the syntax – sudo adduser username
2. Then you have to give a password for that username
3. Then type the rest of the details like full name, phone, etc.
To delete a user, use the syntax – sudo deluser username.
To lock an account temporarily use the syntax – sudo passwd -l username
To unlock an account temporarily use – sudo passwd -u username
To add a group use – sudo addgroup groupname
To delete a group use – sudo delgroup groupname
To add a user to a group use – sudo adduser username groupname
