AFAIK the group creation is true only if (/etc/adduser.conf): ===== # The USERGROUPS variable can be either "yes" or "no". If "yes" each # created user will be given their own group to use as a default, and # their home directories will be g+s. If "no", each created user will # be placed in the group whose gid is USERS_GID (see below). USERGROUPS=yes ===== > or one has to check > - if the user has it's own group This should be simple assuming that /etc/adduser.conf is set the first time and never changed (which could be not true). Just my 0.02EUR... Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
