Talk:Adding Users

Oops- thanks for spotting chgrp share!!

This page would be a lot simpler if the 'adduser' package was installed first.

Then most of the work can be done with a single command:

 adduser -h /opt/home/share share

Adding /etc/passwd and /etc/group to the list of files is still needed, but other than that, adduser does almost everything that's needed.

adduser

There is in fact a separate guide for doing it via adduser.

I just thought people might like to know the manual way.
