Re: Userid
You first need to make sure the permissions on the .profile file are such that the user is allowed to modify it.

Re: Userid
With umask 0 if you create the file everyone will have read/write access to the file
Check the permissions on .profile file.
ll file.

Re: Userid
Cd to the user's home directory and do an ls -la. I suspect that the permissions of .profile are either too restrictive or (more likely the file is owned by another user -- possibly root).
I would do this:
chown myuser:users .profile
(where myuser:users is the desired user:group of this user)
chmod 750 .profile

Re: Userid
what is the procedure to proerly create new user?
Once i created userid with useradd
I am supposed to give rwx permission to that user for his/her home directory.
Thanks again;
