Hi ya,
I have lil trouble with user adding scheme... seems like it's not working correctly :/
For example if i type "useradd whoever" i want it to create homedir in /home/whoever + chown it for this user + add some files inside it...
As i found out, /etc/skel and /etc/default/useradd is responsible for that, so here it goes:
| Quote: | aimar # cat useradd
# useradd defaults file
GROUP=100
HOME=/home
INACTIVE=7
EXPIRE=
SHELL=/bin/false
SKEL=/etc/skel
CREATE_MAIL_SPOOL=no |
aimar # ls -la /etc/skel/

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 551 kwi 12 2008 .bashrc
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 cze 2 2006 cgi-bin
drwx------ 5 root root 4096 mar 16 19:18 .maildir
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 82 mar 16 19:18 .qmail.sample
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 lut 26 2008 .ssh
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 cze 2 2006 www |
Is anything wrong with it? cuz i can't see any new dir in /home/ after i add any new user...
How do i fix it?
Thanks in advance 
Cheers,
Aimar |

from the useradd manpage:
| Quote: |
-m, --create-home
Create the user´s home directory if it does not exist. The files and directories contained in the skeleton directory (which can be
defined with the -k option) will be copied to the home directory.
By default, no home directories are created.
