Can you explain what you mean? Adduser makes the directory, then chowns/chgrps it the new user and group. I think you're trying to say that you expect to be able to set the parent directory setgid, and the new home directories adduser creates will also have this group (and/or be setgid) even when the config file settings say to do something else. If that's actually what you're saying, I'm afraid it won't work like this. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
