    With 6.7, vicfg- is fully deprecated. Refer to the below release notes under 'Feature and Support Notice' -

    vSphere Command-Line Interface 6.7 Release Notes

    For creating a new user, you have to use the esxcli command. For e.g. creating a user with the username 'TestUser' -

    esxcli system account add –id TestUser –password ABC@123 –password-confirmation ABC@123
