Ok, here is the help screen I get when I enter useradd: ************************************************************************* # useradd usage: useradd [-u uid [-o]] [-g group] [-G group,...] [-d home] [-s shell] [-c comment] [-m [-k template]] [-f inactive] [-e expire mm/dd/yy ] name useradd -D [-g group] [-b base] [-f inactive] [-e expire] ************************************************************************** When using the command line version, you need to specify the -d (home), amoung other things.
