Default

Virtually all 'nix systems have a adduser script which will do all the things you ask, normally all you need to specify is the name and any additional groups you want the user to be added to, just accept the defaults for everything else. Don't forget to add your user to the group wheel if want them to be able to su, another widely used group is operator. Open a root shell and enter

adduser username
