Building a home directory

[duncan brown]

the directory you're looking for is /etc/skel ... when you adduser someone
the files in there will be copied into their directory.

ls -a /etc/skel

along with thsoe files is a .bashrc, which will read the contents of
/etc/bashrc and thereby gives you global control.

-d
