Vampire,
I've never used tiny login either and can't really offer any advice i just knew I'd seen something similar before.

Tinylogin already exists in Puppy.
I think what you would have to do is add the user nx.
To do this create a directory named 'home' in the top directory:
in a console type,
mkdir /home
then run.
adduser nx
type in a pasword, you will not see the password echoed back to the terminal, hit enter and type it again and hit enter.
This will give you the user nx.
To remove a user, type,
deluser 'the user name'
hit enter.

3.01 with not much added
Code: Select all
# ls -l /bin/adduser
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2007-11-24 09:21 /bin/adduser -> busybox
I have tried looking for *iny* *ogin* and find nothing that seems to relate to tinylogin.
It is available as a pet in the package manager.

HaryWill, try.
find / -name tinylogin
you should get
/bin/tinylogin
If you are trying to add a user try the steps that I have detailed above.

Sorry men, I have been working in 2.17.1.
Just booted up 3.0 and find there is no tiny login or adduser.
I would go back to 2.17.1 and see what success you have.
