Could anyone here tell me how to add a guest account to my users? I don't see it there and when I try to put in the name guest it wont let me. I assume its already there I just have to enable it somehow.

If you change the short name to something different it will work.
what do you mean? Call it something like GUESS? Not sure exactly what you mean
thanks

You can give it the name "Guest", but the short name can't be "guest", so you have to change it to something like "guests". I think the reason why you can't have the login as guest is because that is probably the first user name someone tries when someone is trying to hack into your computer.
