I have F22 with xfce4 up and running fine on my #2 PC; but I
can't find the GUI form of useradd for it. I tried to RTFM for the
command line, but I'm clearly misunderstanding something. How do I get to
the "users and <whatever>" function that I'm used to using??

Hi,
I don't know xfce4 , but in CLI, useradd tool is available in
/sbin/useradd , you will need to have root privileges to run the command.
Cheers, Edouard.

First place I looked. There is no "Administration" in the System
menu. There is also nothing under Administration (where it still is on my
F21 machine), nor under Settings nor System.

F22 Xfce, in the terminal "system-config-users" will bring up the GUI

Does that exist in fc22?

As you're running Xfce, have you asked at their official forum,
http://forum.xfce.org/index.php This may be DE related, and if so,
they're the best people to ask.

Good point. I read both pretty much daily (via Gmane), but didn't
know about the web site. Maybe its existence explains why there's so
little list traffic in Gmane for Xfce. I'll start watching that, too.
Many thanks!

yum install system-config-users
I'm still on F21, because I don't want to have the dnf mess on a
production machine. So you'll have to translate the command to dnf.

"dnf install system-config-users" did it just fine. Many thanks!
I can't imagine how it came not to be auto-installed (by fedup, fwiw),
but now it's directly under Administration in the Main Menu, as I had
expected; and it works fine. Thanks again!

So, you've had it installed before running fedup and fedup removed it?
fedup only upgrades what you've had before.

I know I had it installed. It's been at least a couple weeks
since I did the upgrade. Something removed it, or failed to include it in
the upgrade; I don't know what. If not fedup, what?

If I may ask, what mess? I have been using it for a year now, didn't
see any big issues other than a few small bugs. When I hit one, I
reported them.

It's even less of a mess if you stick this in ~root/.bashrc
alias yum='dnf'
:-).
