When I create a user with useradd
command in centos 5, the home directory is created and its /etc/skel files are copied to that directory but when i give useradd
with -d
option to some different path to home directory it does not create the skeloton files, like .bachrc
, .bash_history
etc.
If someone can give a hint so I can resolve this problem. Actually I need to execute some specific command .bashrc file but its not there. I created it manually but stil it does not executed that at time of user login.
Regards
Skeleton files are only copied when creating a home directory. Try adding the
-m
option.
