Code:

$ ipa group-add-member Example -users=Lanson,Joanna

What I see here is that you are using commands specific to your OS, OS I dont use but what I see here is You did not give a GID, and I see no reason why thisOS would act differently to other UNIX, so not giving a GID the system will choose the next free value for you.
Now this can be a problem because you are to put 2 person in the same group but on 2 separate servers, meaning both servers should have in /etc/group a line with that group name and SAME GID, the logical way of creating such groups would be to connect on all concerned servers to see what is in /etc/group in order to choose a GID unused...

about b)
I dont get
Quote:
all his the files created by him to have a default mask of 744
What should I understand? Here is the problem:
Either you set the mask to 744:
Code:
 umask 744

and fins yourself with something silly because 744 means owner has no rights group and other have write only...
Or it is what the files perms should look like in which case I have never managed to get a created file executable like that...
Code:
umask 022

is the closest you can get, I suggest you look at the umask man pages

Since you created the group it will not have any sense if users dont exist.. So I cant help you with your fancy commands but sure you will have to create them...

c) We might have to discuss on this one ( how would the users connect - telnet login ssh? important to know what to do after...)

NAME
systemd-machine-id-setup - Initialize the machine ID in /etc/machine-id SYNOPSIS
systemd-machine-id-setup DESCRIPTION
systemd-machine-id-setup may be used by system installer tools to initialize the machine ID stored in /etc/machine-id at install time with a randomly generated ID. See machine-id(5) for more information about this file. This tool will execute no operation if /etc/machine-id is already initialized. If a valid D-Bus machine ID is already configured for the system the D-Bus machine ID is copied and used to initialize the machine ID in /etc/machine-id. If run inside a KVM virtual machine and a UUID is passed via the -uuid option this UUID is used to initialize the machine ID instead of a randomly generated one. The caller must ensure that the UUID passed is sufficiently unique and is different for every booted instanced of the VM. Similar, if run inside a Linux container environment and a UUID is set for the container this is used to initialize the machine ID. For details see the documentation of the Container Interface[1]. OPTIONS
This tool does not take any options or arguments. EXIT STATUS
On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise. SEE ALSO
