You're not going to get a huge response by asking the Debian mailing list
about how to make users under Redhat.
Now, if it was debian I'd run this command:
useradd -u uid [-g group] [-G group,...] [-d home] [-s shell] [-c
comment] [-m [-k template]]
[-f inactive] [-e expire ] [-p passwd] username
Or write a wee shell script something like this
#!/bin/tcsh
foreach user (criggie bob joe )
useradd -s /bin/bash -d /home/${user} -p $user $user
end
Note - linux is linux - generally the command line to do something in
debian is the same as the command line in redhat. The main variance is in
X applications... (hence the benefit behind having no X on your server)
When in doubt - try it out.

Hi,
I just change my machine from Debian to Redhat6.2 and before I sweep out all
of the things under debian,I compassed all of the things under home
directory and put them to another machine. After finish the installation, I
took them back and uncompress them, since there are several users at this
machine, now I just wondering how to make the former users use the machine
smoothly. Do I need use the adduser command and make the users connect with
their directory? How to use it?(now the situation is all of the stuff about
other users have been
under the home directory, however, obviously, they can not login)
Any information is high appreciated!
Thanks a lot!
Xing, Nianwei
