Description Stefan Kiesler 2014-04-16 15:32:42 UTC
The German translation of the useradd man page contains a typo descriping the "-g" option. USERGROUPS_ENAB is defined in /etc/login.defs, not /etc/default/useradd.

Wrong:
Falls nicht definiert, hängt das Verhalten von useradd von der Variable USERGROUPS_ENAB in /etc/default/useradd ab.

Correct (and mentioned in other language versions of the man page):
Falls nicht definiert, hängt das Verhalten von useradd von der Variable USERGROUPS_ENAB in /etc/login.defs ab.

"Typo" means someone typed the wrong character.
