useradd Default Shell Enhancements

The useradd command enables you to specify a default shell by using the -s option and a default skeldirectory by using the -k option.

For example:

# useradd  -D  [-s /usr/bin/ksh]  [-k /export/home] foo 

You can now also specify a base directory without using the -D option.

For example:

# useradd [-b /export/home] foo

For more information on these changes, see the useradd(1M) man page.
