Creating a non priviledged user

[Rodney Cardenas <rodney cardenas alliedelec com>]

I have already created a non-privileged user on the Red Hat Linux 5.2 
machine but I can't seem to find any documentation to show or tell me how 
to configure a non-privileged user. What I did is logon as root and 
successfully installed Gnome under the root account but when I start Gnome 
it warns me "You are running the Gnome File Manager as root. As root, you 
can damage you system , and the file manager will not stop you. Your manual 
explains how to add a non privileged user account to the system. Well I 
don't know where to look I have looked in the Gnome User Guide but I can 
not find any info on this. Can someone please help me with this or point me 
in the right direction to look ???
