[Fedora-livecd-list] Adding users to LiveCD

[Taylor, Monroe E]

I am creating liveCD with livecd-creator tool and using Livecd-fedora-9-base-desktop.ks as
the kickstart file. I needed to a user so I added the following command to the add user
section of the kickstart file

useradd -c "full name of user" username

I created the LiveCD and booted it. The user was listed on the login screen. However, I
was not able to login using it. The following message was displayed "unable to
authenticate user". Since I did not set a password I was expecting that it would
login but it did not.

Additionally, I attempted to login using the default Fedora Live Login. It did not work
but there was no message displayed. It

Any ideas on what is causing this problem?
