for useradd problem, check your disk , your system may force system file in readonly mode , or you ran out free disk space.
just try to touch a file inside /etc
and if you had permission denied or such thing check
you may have some messages from kernel there.
I work on some hp ux 11.00 Servers. i have to add an user. i use the useradd command like follows: useradd -u 72022 -g 71095 -c " comment " -d /PACKAGE_NAME/home/username -s /usr/bin/sh username

Hi.
due to some needs i gave a user the premission to use useradd command with sudo.
i want to know if there is a way to let him set the initial password, without giving him the premission to use passwd command as root (sudo).
maybe a way to set a default password for all the new users that... (2 Replies)
Hi,
I need to add a new user who will only be able to access one single folder on my Solaris 9 system. Can this be achieved by using just useradd or do i need to fiddle with auth_attr table?
TIA,

Gurus,
I need to add a user to all the machines. I need a script to do this. I did one but it does not allow me to su to root within a ssh session i open. It exists saying su: Sorry. Please let me know how i can do it. I do not have the freedom of using sudo either.

I have an account that passwd should never expire. Acheived by emptying associated users shadow file entries for passwd aging.

bz2(3trf)bz2(3trf)NAME
bz2 - Data compression "bz2"
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl ?8.2?
package require Trf ?2.1.3?
bz2 ?options...? ?data?
DESCRIPTION
The command bz2 is one of several data compressions provided by the package trf. See trf-intro for an overview of the whole package.
The command is based on the Burroughs-Wheeler transformation as implemented by the bzip2 compression library (http://sources.red-
hat.com/bzip2/).
bz2 ?options...? ?data?
-mode compress|decompress
This option has to be present and is always understood by the compression.
For immediate mode the argument value specifies the operation to use. For an attached compress it specifies the operation to
use for writing. Reading will automatically use the reverse operation. See section IMMEDIATE versus ATTACHED for explana-
tions of these two terms.
Beyond the argument values listed above all unique abbreviations are recognized too.
Compress causes the compression of arbitrary (most likely binary) data. Decompression does the reverse .
-level integer
Specifies the compression level. Is either the string default or an integer number in the range 1 (minimal compression) to 9
(maximal compression).
-attach channel
The presence/absence of this option determines the main operation mode of the transformation.
If present the transformation will be stacked onto the channel whose handle was given to the option and run in attached mode.
More about this in section IMMEDIATE versus ATTACHED.
If the option is absent the transformation is used in immediate mode and the options listed below are recognized. More about
this in section IMMEDIATE versus ATTACHED.
-in channel
This options is legal if and only if the transformation is used in immediate mode. It provides the handle of the channel the
data to transform has to be read from.
If the transformation is in immediate mode and this option is absent the data to transform is expected as the last argument
to the transformation.
-out channel
This options is legal if and only if the transformation is used in immediate mode. It provides the handle of the channel the
generated transformation result is written to.
If the transformation is in immediate mode and this option is absent the generated data is returned as the result of the com-
mand itself.
IMMEDIATE VERSUS ATTACHED
The transformation distinguishes between two main ways of using it. These are the immediate and attached operation modes.
For the attached mode the option -attach is used to associate the transformation with an existing channel. During the execution of the com-
mand no transformation is performed, instead the channel is changed in such a way, that from then on all data written to or read from it
passes through the transformation and is modified by it according to the definition above. This attachment can be revoked by executing the
command unstack for the chosen channel. This is the only way to do this at the Tcl level.
In the second mode, which can be detected by the absence of option -attach, the transformation immediately takes data from either its com-
mandline or a channel, transforms it, and returns the result either as result of the command, or writes it into a channel. The mode is
named after the immediate nature of its execution.
Where the data is taken from, and delivered to, is governed by the presence and absence of the options -in and -out. It should be noted
that this ability to immediately read from and/or write to a channel is an historic artifact which was introduced at the beginning of Trf's
life when Tcl version 7.6 was current as this and earlier versions have trouble to deal with characters embedded into either input or
output.
