creating user accounts in AIX

Hello all:

I am new to UNIX and I am given the responsibility of administering a UNIX machine recently. The system is a IBM AIX 3.1. As a part of my duties I recently created some user accounts
using "smit". It looked as if everything went well. But, after creating the account, I logged into it and found the prompt to be "#". I think this kind of prompt is only assigned to superusers. The prompt for other normal users is "work_station/home/username %". I am afraid that may be I assigned the new user accounts to be
superusers.

Is there a way to check the privileges of the new accounts? And, how do I revert them back to normal user status?

Any kind of help is appreciated and hoping for a reply desperately before anything goes wrong.

Thanx
Praveen.

check their User ID numbers. root has a UID of 0. you CAN create multiple users with a UID of zero.

helloo...

i checked with UID's. They are not set to 0. Each user account has a unique UID different from 0.

Maybe the other users created on the system use a different home directory with a specific .profile. Check the home directory of another user that is logging in the way you want. In that directory look at the .profile file. Compare this to the .profile file in the home directory of the new user you created.
