Add directory by the root to a new user (script)
 
I'm working on a script which create users automatically with some parameters. So i would like to ask how can i create repertories in the home directory of the new user

+ the script is used with sudo
# ./sudo name_script

My syntax is:

# after the creation of the new_user i tried this syntax:

mkdir new_directory

# when i check if the new_directory has been created
# i find it in the current user not in the new_user.

#I also tried this syntax,but the new_directory doesn't exist too.
#I supposed that now i'm in the new_user

su -l new_user

mkdir new_directory

#The creation of users woks good.

Best regards.
