enewuser won't create a home directory if you don't specify one (ie |
| 27 |
it's set to /dev/null or it's unset). Also, you can use 'esethome' to |
| 28 |
set the home directory to an existing directory. With both of these |
| 29 |
options I don't think that a --do-not-create-homedir option is necessary. |
