Homework and Emergencies Homework & Coursework Questions Create script to add user and create directory Post 302505772 by pbhound on Thursday 17th of March 2011 05:22:55 PM

in this first section of the code:

echo "What department are you assigned to?"
read department # $department
sleep 2
echo "you are assigned to the: $department"
sleep 7
clear

the variable $department

is the directory that the script will be looking for. if the directory exists then it will pass the if/then/else question and proceed to create the user. if it fails the script is supposed to create the directory that the user entered. my problem is getting the script to create the directory with out being logged in as root.
