I believe that if you do not provide the -m switch it will not create a user home dir. They will be placed in a group that is the same as their username. If you are creating a service account then you should probably give the user a null shell using -s /sbin/nologin. And if you do not specify a password the account is disabled. This give's you: useradd -s /sbin/nologin openpbx
Ah,   I had already created the group per instructions, so

useradd -g openpbx -s /sbin/nologin openpbx

worked.  I hope it worked right!
That should do it! On 3/9/07, *Robert Moskowitz* <rgm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:rgm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>> wrote:

    there is the following adduser command:

    adduser --no-create-home --ingroup openpbx --disabled-password
    --disabled-login openpbx

    This does NOT seem to be the right format for Centos.  So far, using
    man, I have come up with;


    adduser -M -g openpbx

    What else do I need?
