Question

I set up a server with 2 users, there is no FTP access only SSH one.
I want to add a new user.
It will be easy with a

sudo adduser foo

But, i want foo to be redirected to /home/user1/foo when login with SSH.

I don’t really need foo to have a /home, but if he got one it’s ok !

I read the man pag but didn’t find any clue.

Answer 1

So, let’s look at the man page again: http://linux.die.net/man/8/adduser

sudo adduser --home /home/user1/foo foo

creates the user and sets his home directory to /home/user1/foo
