>Description:
I have just installed FreeBSD on my AMD K6'233 machine,  I've had no problem installing software.
At the promt in setup, asked to create a seperate user account, so I don't use root all the time. I enter my name, then skip the group, adn enter my password, then enter my whole name first and last,  I don't choose groups,.I don't choose home address, leave the last field unchanged, then I enter.

After all that, at Login I cannot get logged in, what is the matter with the setup?
Do I need a home address and group name?

Please help,

First time installed

    Did you enter the password the exact same way you did when you
 chose it?  The same case, spelling...
 
   FooBar is not the same as Foobar is not the same as FoobaR is
 not the same as foobar.

 Justin:  Log in to your system as root with your given root password,
 then enter
 
 	passwd username
 
 at the prompt, replacing username with the user account you created. 
 Specify a new password and you should be just fine.  I'd wager there's a
 typo somewhere along the line.
 
 In the future, please refer these kinds of inquiries to

 This PR, I think, should be closed.
