You can use something like this: /usr/sbin/useradd -m -c 'Joseph' -d /home/Joseph2 -s '/bin/false' -G '' -g 45 -e '' goseph2
and you will create a user goseph2 with the group 45 (popuser) without Shell (-S /bin/false) and the home dir /home/Joseph2 bye -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gareth Thomas Sent: Monday, July 14, 2003 1:07 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: create email account Joseph, did you create those accounts with 'useradd'?
