Yes, of course, I could use "useradd -g", but I'm always forgetting it. |
| 24 |
I was thinking for something more like...let's say a config file, where |
| 25 |
one could put the defaults and actually use only "useradd xyz" w/o any |
| 26 |
params. Thinking of which...there is this file /etc/default/useradd, |
| 27 |
where I have the statement "GROUP=100" (100=users), but useradd doesn't |
| 28 |
obey it... |
