Package: adduser Version: (3.63) Hi,.... i made a Debian-sarge basic installation (so i hope the packetname i wrote above was correct) and createt users by usind "adduser". I used the synopsis: adduser --gecos --no-create-home <user> but the parameter "--no-create-home" doesn''t take effect. I tried it in different ways,.... by using the prompt and a shell script. Both methods created a /home/<user/ directory. Sincerely Stefan
