is there such a thing as a linux "user profile"?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



  admittedly a weird question ... i have, on very short notice, been
handed a linux course to teach for a new client, and it's typically
taught in a centos 7 environment. perusing the manual, it all looks
reasonable, until i get to a section in the user/group administration
chapter called "configure user profiles."

  the section is weirdly written, and it may be nothing, but is there
such a thing as a "user profile" in linux, as opposed to just the
standard user/group/.profile configuration? that is, can a single
account have multiple "user profiles" configured for it in some way
that i've never been aware of?

  i suspect the term "user profile" here was simply badly chosen, but
i want to make sure i'm not misunderstanding something. thanks.
