Great! But I noticed something. When the system copies those files for a new user, they're all owned by root:root. Is there a reason for this? When the system created the initial non-root user upon installation, the files were owned by that user. How would you make it so that those files copied from /etc/skel/ were owned by the user your were creating with adduser? -- [ Russ Schneider (a.k.a.
