To add a new user account manually, first create a new user account. For example if you using Ubuntu, the command {{Command|sudo adduser --disabled-password USERNAME}} will create a new user. The new user also needs to have a keypair, see [[Generating_SSH_keys_in_Windows|generating SSH keys in windows]] or [[Using_SSH_keys_in_Linux#Creating a Key Pair|creating a key pair in Linux or Mac]] depending on the operating system they will be connecting from. Then their public key must be added to <code>/home/USERNAME/.ssh/authorized_keys</code> on the VM, ensuring permissions and ownership is correct as described in steps 2 and 3 of [[Using_SSH_keys_in_Linux#Connecting using a Key Pair|connecting using a key pair]].
