Hence the "Advantages" and > "Disadvantages" sections. I don't read it as a HOWTO. Understood, thanks. As packager, what am I supposed to do, especially when the following fails: # /usr/sbin/fedora-useradd -u 23 -M -d /srv/moomps -c 'service companion to moodss' -s '/sbin/nologin' moomps Usage: useradd [options] LOGIN Options: -b, --base-dir BASE_DIR base directory for the new user account ... Tracing the script, the following is executed: exec /usr/sbin/useradd 300 23 -M -d /srv/moomps -c 'service companion to moodss' -s /sbin/nologin moomps Is anybody using this? -- Jean-Luc -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
