How to change user home folder in Linux
| September 17th, 2009To change an user home folder to another folder you can use 2 methods
- usermod -d /mynewfolder/anotherfolder username
Ex: usermod -d /opt/install myuser to change new default home folder of myuser to /opt/install
- Edit /etc/passwd and change home folder path of the user
Ex: myuser:x:503:503::/home/myuser:/bin/bash
change to
myuser:x:503:503::/opt/install:/bin/bash
How can you change the default home directory thar “adduser” uses when the –home argument is not sent? Is there a .conf file or something someware?
