[ubuntu-in] Problem with adding users

[Amit Sarda]

i installed the latest ubuntu 8.10 with a defauly user say "xyz".
now i want to add another user say "abc" how do i go about it?

its says that i do not have permission and only "root" can do the same.

but what is the default password for "root"?

also, how do i set it?

moreover, once does, how can i set permissions to the user.

please guide.
