.bash_profile file not created after creation of user.
 

Hi,

I would like to know how to create .bash_profile for user.

I have created the user other then in /home partition.

using command

useradd -m -d /data/test1 test1

but .bash_profile was not created.

Using the -m option should copy all files present in /etc/skel to the newly created home directory.

Is .bash_profile present in /etc/skel?

do you have anything in /etc/skel? i belive it should copy files from there to new user's home

edit: you beat me to it..

Thanks Mitofik for timely support.
