Hi, The system-config-users utility fails to create home directory for a new user if the parent directory of the requested home does not exist. That is, it acts similar to "mkdir <home>", while it would be more sensible to act like "mkdir -p <home>". Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-users-1.2.86-1.fc11.noarch How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start system-config-users 2. click "add user" 3. enter a new username (e.g. "test5") and password. Make sure the "create home directory" box is checked, and change /home/test5 to /home/subdir/test5. Click "OK". Actual results: user "test5" is created but its home directory does not exist. Expected results: User's home directory should be created. Thank you, Andrei
Thanks for taking the time to submit this request for enhancement. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten around to implement this feature, sorry for that. Because I don't actively develop system-config-users anymore, I won't likely find the time to work on this ticket, so I'll close it now.
