useradd is not adding userid to /etc/group

[Chris Harris]

is this standard on HP 11.* that 'useradd' doesn't add the userid to its primary group?

Hi Chris,

this is a standard functionality. Take a look at this thread,

Hope this helps.

Chris,

it does not, it stores the primary group as the 4th field in /etc/passwd. The only thing that goes into /etc/group is secondary groups
