Good Afternoon all, I am setting up a new system for a municipality. I want to setup one user's home dir, their desktop, .profile, dir tree, etc....then clone it to all the other users I need to setup. email is not a part of this cloning process. I am trying to avoid the labor setting up each user's desktop individually..... Because the desktop (Mate) will be used.....is their some manner to not bork up the cloned home dir's when cloning? Is there an approved method? I ask because I am not getting any Google/Yahoo hits....I may be searching for the wrong terms...or maybe this is not an "orthodox" strategy. May I ask for pointers please? Thank you! Sincerely and respectfully, Dave
