useradd on VPS
I'm trying to set up a user from root on a VPS i recently leased. I use:
useradd -m 'user'
This seems to work fine, the home dir is created and I can give the user a password. However, when I ssh via the user, the only prompt is a $. User seems to not open the shell. It seems to not find its home directory. For example, it recognizes 'ls -l' but not 'll'
When i 'sudo' I get message 'user is not in the sudoer file.'
I think my issue is bigger than just an entry in the sudoer file.
Any advice?
