These screens allow you to add groups and users to your system.
|
||||
|
||||
Many of the settings get reasonable defaults if you leave them blank.
|
||||
The first time you have entered the name of the new group or user, the
|
||||
system will show you what it would chose for most of these fields.
|
||||
You are free to change them, of course.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
User groups
|
||||
===========
|
||||
|
||||
It's certainly almost generally a good idea to first create a new
|
||||
group for your users. Common names for such a group are "users", or
|
||||
even simply "other". Group names are used to control file access
|
||||
permissions for users that belong to the same group. Several group
|
||||
names are already used for system files.
|
||||
|
||||
The numerical user or group IDs are often nothing you want to care for
|
||||
explicitly. If you don't fill in these fields, the system will choose
|
||||
reasonable defaults. However, these numbers (rather than the
|
||||
associated names) are what the operating system actually uses to
|
||||
distinguish users and groups -- hence they should normally be unique
|
||||
to each person or group, respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Users
|
||||
=====
|
||||
|
||||
The user's login ID is a short (up to 15 characters) alphanumeric ID
|
||||
that the user must enter when logging into the system. It's often the
|
||||
initial letters of the user's name, and commonly used in lower case.
|
||||
It's also the local mail name for this user (though it's possible to
|
||||
also set up more descriptive mail alias names later).
|
||||
|
||||
The user's login group determines which group access rights the user
|
||||
will initially get when logging in. If an additional list of groups is
|
||||
provided which the user will become a member of, (s)he will also be
|
||||
able to access files of those groups later without providing any
|
||||
additional password etc. Except for the "wheel" case mentioned below,
|
||||
the additional group membership list should normally not contain the
|
||||
login group again.
|
||||
|
||||
The user's password can also be set here, and should be chosen with
|
||||
care - 6 or more characters, intermixing punctuation and numerics, and
|
||||
*not* a word from the dictionary or related to the username is a good
|
||||
password choice.
|
||||
|
||||
Some of the system's groups have a special meaning. In particular,
|
||||
members of group "wheel" are the only people who are later allowed to
|
||||
become superuser using the command su(1). So if you're going to add a
|
||||
new user who should later perform administrative tasks, don't forget
|
||||
to add him to this group! (Well, ``he'' will most likely be yourself
|
||||
in the very first place. :)
|
||||
|
||||
Also, members of group "operator" will by default get permissions for
|
||||
minor administrative operations, like performing system backups, or
|
||||
shutting down the system -- without first becoming superuser! So,
|
||||
take care when adding people to this group.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``full name'' field serves as a comment only. It is also used by
|
||||
mail front ends to determine the real name of the user, hence you
|
||||
should actually fill in the first and last name of this user. By
|
||||
convention, this field can be divided into comma-separated subfields,
|
||||
where the office location, the work phone number, and the home phone
|
||||
number follow the full name of the user.
|
||||
|
||||
The home directory is the directory in the filesystem where the user
|
||||
is being logged into, and where his personalized setup files (``dot
|
||||
files'', since they usually begin with a `.' and are not displayed by
|
||||
the ls(1) command by default) will be looked up. It is often created
|
||||
under /usr/home/ or /home/.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, the shell is the user's initial command interpreter. The
|
||||
default shell is /bin/sh, some users prefer the more historic
|
||||
/bin/csh. Other, often more user-friendly and comfortable shells can
|
||||
be found in the ports and packages collection.
