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 RE: group users for new user? - IriDium - 9th Feb, 2014 02:53 AM What are you actually trying to achieve? What is the output from Terminal groups RE: group users for new user? - turtle - 9th Feb, 2014 10:24 AM (9th Feb, 2014 02:53 AM)IriDium Wrote: What are you actually trying to achieve? 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. RE: group users for new user? - IriDium - 9th Feb, 2014 11:31 PM Sounds like you should be using Raspbian and not Xbian. or you could try RaspXbian RE: group users for new user? - mk01 - 24th Mar, 2014 02:54 PM @turtle this is depending on configuration, look into: Code: /etc/default/useradd if you uncomment GROUP=100, useradd will do what you want. |
