Yes, of course, I could use "useradd -g", but I'm always forgetting |
25 |
about it. I was thinking for something more like...let's say a config |
26 |
file, where one could put the defaults and actually use only |
27 |
"useradd xyz" w/o any params. Talking of which...there's that |
28 |
file /etc/default/useradd, where I have the statement |
29 |
"GROUP=100" (100=users), but useradd doesn't obey it... |
