Thanks for the info. When I added a new user, a home directory will be automatically created for the user. However, I thought when an user did some updates in his/her directory, the timestamp on that directory reflects the time those changes were made, and not necessary the time when the user was added to the system. Maybe I'm missing something here.

This may not be the right answer. But might be useful When you add a new user, a home directory also will be created by default if you don't mention -M with useradd. You can check when the home directory is created in /home and this will be same as the time when user is created.

Hi, I used 'useradd' to create a new for my Redhat system. Is there a command that I can find out when this user was added to the system?
