Thanks. I also noticed that a group with the same GID number as the users UID number is automatically created when creating the user account, this is a problem for existing environments who's already used the same ID number for a group.
I see that even after doing a user-mod, changing the GID of the account, the private (invisible) group still exists. I'm missing an option to choose if I want to create or not create a private group for the user.
