Allen Wittenauer commented on HDFS-11400:
-----------------------------------------
bq. When you SSH in to Linux systems /etc/skel is copied to instantiate
/home/<username> if it doesn't already exist - this is where I got the idea
from, it's been this way for many years and been a widely useful paradigm for
millions of people already.
Only if pam_mkhomedir is configured, which is not the default on the vast
majority of Linux machines, must less UNIX.
