group users for new user? - turtle - 8th Feb, 2014 08:10 AM
Hello all,
I added on my Xbian system a new user "foobar" and there seems to be no group "users"?
The home directory of the new user looks like this:
drwxr-xr-x 2 foobar foobar 4096 Feb 7 21:37 foobar
Shouldn't this be like this?
drwxr-xr-x 2 foobar users 4096 Feb 7 21:37 foobar
Many thanks in advance
Turtle
PS: By the way, the user "users" is in the system:
> sudo group add users
gives
> groupadd: group 'users' already exists
but users is nowhere to be found in /etc/groups

What are you actually trying to achieve?
What is the output from
Terminal
groups

typing groups says:
> xbian sudo input
Why is the users group not there? I am trying to setup xbian so that the raspi is a cloud and samba server. I was just surprised that no "users" group was set as default for a new user. Thanks a lot for answering.

Sounds like you should be using Raspbian and not Xbian.
or you could try RaspXbian

@turtle
this is depending on configuration, look into:
Code:
/etc/default/useraddif you uncomment GROUP=100, useradd will do what you want.
