+# /etc/adduser.local.conf: Configuration for /usr/local/sbin/adduser.local #
+############################################################################
+
+# [JNZ] Modified 21-Jun-2013
+
+# This file configures the local system additions to adduser(8) and should
+# be modified to suit local conditions.
+#
+# adduser.local is a script that configures a user's account for various
+# "services". These services are simply convenient names for directories
+# that must be created, Unix groups to which the user must be added, files
+# that need to be copied and so on.
+#
+# Note that adduser(8) can now perform SOME of the tasks that adduser.local
+# does, particularly by using the EXTRA_GROUPS and ADD_EXTRA_GROUPS
+# variables in /etc/adduser.conf. However, adduser.local is far more
+# flexible than doing just that...
+#
+# Please see the end of this file for an explanation of its syntax.

+# home directory.
+
+skelother = /etc/skel.other
+
+# The dirmode variable specifies the octal mode used by chmod(1) for any

+# - the link "public_html" is created to point to this directory

+###########################
+# Syntax of this file #
+###########################
+
+# The syntax of this file will be familiar to anyone who has used a
+# scripting language before. This file is processed line by line, with each
+# line either being blank (and hence ignored), a comment or a configuration
+# variable.
+#
+# Comment lines (such as this one) begin with a hash character ("#") and
+# continue to the end of the line. The hash character may be preceded by
+# white space. Comment lines, like blank lines, are ignored.
+#
+# All lines that are not blank or are comment lines contain configuration
+# variables (one per line, with no comments allowed). A configuration
+# variable has one of two forms:
+#
+# VARIABLE = VALUE
+# VARIABLE[SERVICE] = VALUE
+#
+# The first form is for global variables, while the second form is for
+# variables associated with a particular service. Both the variable name
+# and the service name are alphanumeric strings and are case sensitive (ie,
+# the names "SKELOTHER", "skelother" and "SkelOther" refer to three
+# different variables).
+#
+# The value is typically a string which may or may not be case sensitive.
+# It may be (but usually does not need to be) surrounded by single or double
+# quotes, in which case everything within the quotes is part of the value.
+# Note that white space may surround the variable, service and value
+# components; such white space is discarded, unless it appears in quotes.
+# You may NOT use backslash to quote quote characters!
+#
+# If a value required is a boolean, "0", "false", "f", "no" and "n" are
+# treated as the false value, while "1", "true", "t", "yes" and "y" are
+# treated as the true value. In both cases, the value is case-insensitive.
+#
+#
+# GLOBAL VARIABLES:
+# =================
+#
+# The following global variables are available:
+#
+# skelother
+# dirmode
+# filemode
+#
+# These are described in the section "Global Options" above.
+#
+#
+# SERVICE VARIABLES:
+# ==================
+#
+# The main role of adduser.local is to configure a user's account for
+# various "services". These services are simply convenient names for
+# directories that must be created, Unix groups to which the user must be
+# added, files that need to be copied and so on.
+#
+# adduser.local is informed of the existence of a service by the "service"
+# global variable:
+#
+# service = SERVICENAME
+#
+# The service name SERVICENAME may be any case-sensitive alphanumeric
+# string. Examples used within this file are "www" and "data". Service
+# names need not correspond to any real service --- they are completely
+# internal to adduser.local, and are only used as a key for service
+# variables. The "service" global variable may appear multiple times, each
+# time with a different service name.
+#
+# The order of the "service" global variables IS important, as that is the
+# order in which those services are created. This is important if one
+# service depends on a prior one having been set up.
+#
+# The "service" global variable must appear before any of the services
+# variables for that service are defined.
+#
+# The following service variables are available, and may be specified in any
+# order:
+#
+# user
+# group
+# addtogroup
+# homedir
+# subdir
+# althome
+# mounted
+# mkdir
+# chgrpdir
+# mklink
+# linkname
+# skelfile
+# chgrpskel
+#
+# Remember that each service variable is followed by a service name in
+# square brackets. In the following explanations, "SVC" is used as a
+# sample service name.
+#
+#
+# user[SVC] = USER
+#
+# Specifies that the service belongs to a real user, and that that
+# service user name is USER. This user name must appear in the password
+# database file either in the first field (ie, a user name) or in the
+# third (ie, a numeric UID).
+#
+# Specifying a user name or UID also sets default values for the
+# "group" and "homedir" service variables. These default values are
+# taken from the password database (the "homedir" variable is only set
+# if the "althome" variable is set to false).
+#
+#
+# group[SVC] = GROUP
+#
+# Specifies that the service's group name is GROUP. This group name
+# must appear in the group database file either in the first field (ie,
+# a group name) or in the third (ie, a numeric GID).
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, or is specified with GROUP as an
+# empty string "", and the user variable is specified (and points to a
+# valid user), the group name is taken to be the service user's default
+# group. For example, if "user[svc] = mail" were to be specified, and
+# group[svc] were not, the group used would be default group for the
+# user "mail" (which happens to be GID 8, ie, "mail").
+#
+# This group is also used for the group owner of directories, links
+# and copied files, depending on the settings of the "chgrpdir" and
+# "chgrpskel" variables.
+#
+#
+# addtogroup[SVC] = BOOLEAN
+#
+# Instructs whether to add the user to the group specified by the
+# "group" variable or implied by the "user" variable. If true,
+# adduser.local adds the user to the group, assuming that the group,
+# in fact, exists.
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, false is assumed.
+#
+#
+# homedir[SVC] = PATH
+#
+# Specifies the service's home directory as an absolute path name (ie,
+# starting from "/"). The service's home directory is used to check if
+# it is a mount point, as well as a base directory for the "mkdir" and
+# "skelfile" variables. If the directory does not exist, those
+# variables take no effect.
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, or is specified with PATH as an
+# empty string "", the value used for the service's home directory is
+# calculated in one of two ways. The first method is to use the home
+# directory of the service user; the second is to use the home directory
+# of the user for whom adduser.local was called.
+#
+# The first method is used when the "althome" variable is set to false
+# and the "user" variable is specified (and points to a valid user).
+# For example, if "user[svc] = www" and "althome[svc] = false" were to
+# be specified, the default value of the "homedir" variable would be
+# taken from www's home directory, typically "/var/www".
+#
+# The second method is used when the "althome" variable is true. For
+# example, if adduser.local were to be called for the user "anna", and
+# "althome" were set to true, the "homedir" variable would be set to the
+# home directory of anna, typically "/home/anna".
+#
+# Note that neither of these methods is used if the "homedir" variable
+# is set to anything other than an empty string; in such a case, the
+# specified value for the variable is always used.
+#
+#
+# subdir[SVC] = PATH
+#
+# Specifies a subdirectory off the home directory. This subdirectory is
+# used for creating the new directory, copying the skeleton file and for
+# the destination of the link.
+#
+# If the "althome" variable is set to false, the subdirectory must
+# already exist and is used in conjunction with the home directory and
+# the user's name (for whom adduser.local was called). For example, if
+# the following were to be specified:
+#
+# homedir[svc] = /media/zip
+# subdir[svc] = home
+# althome[svc] = false
+# mkdir[svc] = true
+#
+# and the user's name (for whom adduser.local was called) was "james",
+# the directory "/media/zip/home/james" would be created.
+#
+# If, on the other hand, the "althome" variable was set to true, the
+# subdirectory is used only in conjunction with the home directory; it
+# is THAT directory that is created. For example, if the following were
+# to be specified:
+#
+# althome[svc] = true
+# subdir[svc] = "public_html"
+# mkdir[svc] = true
+#
+# and adduser.local were called for the user "kathy" (who had the home
+# directory "/home/kathy"), the directory "/home/kathy/public_html"
+# would be created.
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, blank is assumed.
+#
+#
+# althome[SVC] = BOOLEAN
+#
+# Specifies whether the default value for the "homedir" variable is to
+# be taken from the service's home directory or from the user's home
+# directory (for whom adduser.local was called). If false, the
+# service's home directory (implied by the "user" setting) is used. If
+# true, the actual user's home directory is used.
+#
+# This variable also controls whether or not the user's login name is
+# used as part of the directory created by the "mkdir" variable and used
+# by the "mklink" and "skelfile" variables. See "homedir" and "mklink"
+# for more details.
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, false is assumed.
+#
+#
+# mounted[SVC] = BOOLEAN
+#
+# Specifies whether to check if the directory specified by the
+# "homedir" variable (or implied by other variables) is mounted or
+# not. A directory is mounted if it, or any parent directory, is
+# mounted (excluding the root directory, which is always mounted).
+# For example, if the following were to be specified (and the user's
+# name were "alice"):
+#
+# homedir[svc] = /home/external/server/ftp
+# subdir[svc] = doc/users
+# mounted[svc] = true
+# mkdir[svc] = true
+#
+# then the directory "/home/external/server/ftp/doc/users/alice" would
+# be created only if either "/home/external/server/ftp",
+# "/home/external/server", "/home/external" or "/home" were mounted.
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, false is assumed (ie, the mount
+# check is NOT performed).
+#
+# Note that "checking for mounting" is defined as examining the contents
+# of /proc/mounts. It does NOT actually attempt to mount the
+# directories.
+#
+#
+# mkdir[SVC] = BOOLEAN
+#
+# Directs adduser.local whether or not to create the directory specified
+# by the "homedir" and "subdir" variables. If the "althome" variable is
+# false, the directory that is created has the user's login name at the
+# end. In all cases, the newly created directory belongs to that user.
+# For example, if adduser.local was called for the user "david", and the
+# following lines were to be specified:
+#
+# homedir[data1] = "/data/1"
+# subdir[data1] = "users"
+# althome[data1] = false
+# mkdir[data1] = true
+#
+# then the directory "/data/1/users/david" would be created, owned by
+# the user "david". If, on the other hand, the following were to be
+# specified (for the same user "david"):
+#
+# subdir[www] = "public_html"
+# althome[www] = true
+# mkdir[www] = true
+#
+# then the directory "/home/david/public_html" would be created
+# (assuming "/home/david" was david's home directory), owned by the
+# user "david".
+#
+# The mode of the directory is taken from the "dirmode" global variable
+# in this configuration file. See also the comment on that global
+# variable.
+#
+# The group owner of the directory is either the same as the user's (in
+# this case, if the user "david" was in the group "users" by default,
+# then the group owner would be "users"), or the same as the service
+# user's group (see the "group" variable for more information). The
+# "chgrpdir" variable specifies which of these two options is used.
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, false is assumed.
+#
+#
+# chgrpdir[SVC] = BOOLEAN
+#
+# Specifies the group owner of any directory and link created by the
+# "mkdir" and "mklink" variables respectively. If true is specified,
+# the group owner is the same as specified by the "group" variable (or
+# implied by the "user" variable). If false is specified, the group
+# owner is the same as the actual user's default group.
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, false is assumed.
+#
+#
+# mklink[SVC] = BOOLEAN
+#
+# Specifies whether or not to create a symbolic link to the created
+# directory (see "mkdir" above) in the actual user's home directory.
+# The name of the link is taken from the "linkname" variable below. For
+# example, if the following were to be specified, and adduser.local were
+# called for the user "mark":
+#
+# homedir[data1] = "/data/1"
+# subdir[data1] = "users"
+# althome[data1] = false
+# mkdir[data1] = true
+# mklink[data1] = true
+# linkname[data1] = "data1"
+#
+# then, not only would the directory "/data/1/users/mark" be created,
+# but the symbolic link "data1" would be created in his home directory
+# as well, pointing to that directory (that is, "/home/mark/data1" ->
+# "/data/1/users/mark").
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, false is assumed.
+#
+#
+# linkname[SVC] = PATH
+#
+# Specifies the name of the symbolic link created in the user's home
+# directory, as demonstrated in the example above. If PATH includes
+# subdirectories, these subdirectories must already exist before the
+# symbolic link is created; these can be created by other services prior
+# to this one.
+#
+# If the "mklink" variable is true, and the "linkname" variable is not
+# specified, or is an empty string "", the name of the service is used
+# (as specified by the "service" global variable).
+#
+#
+# skelfile[SVC] = PATH
+#
+# Instructs adduser.local to copy the file PATH from the "skelother"
+# skeleton directory (see the global variable of that name) into the
+# newly-created directory specified by the "mkdir" variable. For
+# example, if adduser.local was called for the user "nina", and the
+# following lines were to be specified:
+#
+# homedir[www] = "/home/www"
+# subdir[www] = "doc/users"
+# althome[www] = false
+# mkdir[www] = true
+# skelfile[www] = "index.html"
+#
+# then the directory "/home/www/doc/users/nina" would be created and the
+# file "index.html" would be copied from /etc/skel.other (assuming this
+# is the directory specified by the "skelother" global variable) into
+# that newly-created directory.
+#
+# The newly-copied file will have a mode as specified by the "filemode"
+# global variable, and its group owner will either be the default group
+# of the user, or the group as specified by the "group" variable or
+# implied by the "user" variable. See the "chgrpskel" variable below.
+#
+# If this variable is not specified, or PATH is an empty string "", no
+# file is copied. If a file of that name already exists, it is NOT
+# overwritten. Only one file may be specified in any given service; if
+# more are needed, simply create additional services with matching
+# "homedir", "subdir", "althome" and "mkdir" variables.
+#
+#
+# chgrpskel[SVC] = BOOLEAN
+#
+# Determines whether or not adduser.local changes the group owner of the
+# copied skeleton file (specified by the "skelfile" variable above) to
+# the group specified by the "group" variable or implied by the "user"
+# variable. If this variable is false, the default group of the user
+# remains the group owner.
