useradd -c "News system" -d /etc/news -g 13 -u 9 -s /bin/bash news
I'd like to add a user 'news'. My question is what could be "News system"?
Is it a server name or ip address?
Could you explain more?
I appreciate your taking time to answer my questions.

The command MadeInGermany worked.
Thank you

SUBSCRIPTIONS(5) InterNetNews Documentation SUBSCRIPTIONS(5)
NAME
subscriptions - Default recommended subscriptions
DESCRIPTION
The pathetc/subscriptions file contains a list of newsgroups that is returned by the NNTP command LIST SUBSCRIPTIONS.
Clients that support this command usually send it the first time they connect to a new news server. They use the returned list to
initialize the list of subscribed newsgroups. The subscriptions file therefore should contain groups intended for new users, for testing,
or that contain FAQs and other useful information for first-time Usenet users.
The syntax of the subscriptions file is trivial; it is a simple list of newsgroup names, one per line. The order of newsgroups may be
significant; the news reading client may present the groups in that order to the user.
EXAMPLE
A typical subscriptions file may look like:
news.announce.newusers
news.newusers.questions
local.test
local.general
local.talk
misc.test
misc.test.moderated
news.answers
news.announce.newgroups
This gives the client the FAQs and question newsgroup for new users first, then a local newsgroup for testing and various commonly-read
local discussion groups, followed by the world-wide test groups, all the FAQs, and announcements of new world-wide newsgroups. If there is
a local new users group, one might want to list it first.
