User creation

Hi all,

I want to create one user with full permissions to one directory called /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin.

Name for the user Tivoli

Thanks & Regards

look at the man pages for "useradd" when creating users.

For the permissions side, chmod or setfacl should help.

Better not to use a confusing gcos, to set a proper home directory and an existing shell Smilie
Code:
useradd -u -g -d /home/Tivoli -m -c "Tivoli user" 
-s /bin/bash Tivoli

/home is a autofs directory in solaris! so better use /export/home/Tivoli Smilie
