Anyone know how to adjust rear brake?

I can squeeze the rear brake lever all the way down and barely get any brake out of the rear. I'm certain I need to adjust the cable, but I need your help in making sure I do it properly.

Squat down and look at your wheel from the rear. You will see a nut on the end of the cable between the shock absorber and the tire. Screw that clockwise until you have the tension at the lever that you desire.

Thanks Keys. That's what I figured, but I wanted to hear it from someone else before doing it. Heading outside right now to get'er done.
