usermod
Hi
Im trying to change the name of a user on my rh9 machine from ali to darkness, and also move his files from /userhome/ali/ to /userhome/darkness From the usermod manual id guess the command would be: usermod ali -d /userhome/darkness -m -l darkess but when i run that command i get: usermod: user darkness does not exist What else do i have to do to get this move done? thanks Simon |
Rename /userhome/ali to /userhome/darkness (see info mv as I like to use Midnight Commander for file administration)
Alternate way to /copymove: mkdir /userhome/darkness cd /userhome/ali tar cf - . | (cd /userhome/darkness && tar xBfp -) Then: useradd darkness chown -R darkness.darkness /userhome/darkness userdel ali # Redhat links RedHat Linux Manuals Get your mp3 support here Maximum RPM rpmfind Easier software management: apt4rpm - Red Carpet RedHat 8.0 Tips & Tricks # Redhat 7.3 down configuration commands setup leads to several configuration tools # Redhat 7.3 up configuration commands Configure soundcard: redhat-config-soundcard Configure X server: redhat-config-xfree86 Configure network: redhat-config-network Manage software: redhat-config-packages # Handling NTFS New Technology FileSystem (NTFS) HOWTOs Linux NTFS project |
