Are you sure the useradd executable is in the directory you are running the script from.
bash: useradd: command not found
I would think would simply indicate that either useradd is not in the directory, or maybe it is not set executable.

Subject: [sniffer] Sniffer setup



Hello,
I'm setting sniffer on a redhat 9 machine,

i just started the setup and i'm getting this error:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] Source]# useradd -g 93 -u 93 -c "Spam Filter" -d /bin/false -s
/bin/false snfilter
bash: useradd: command not found
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Source]# chown snfilter /var/spool/snfilter
/var/spool/snfilter/msg
chown: `snfilter': invalid user
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Source]# cd /var/spool/snfilter
[EMAIL PROTECTED] snfilter]# chown snfilter sniffer snfrv2r3.exe snfrv2r3.snf
chown: `snfilter': invalid user
[EMAIL PROTECTED] snfilter]# chmod 500 snfrv2r3.exe sniffer
[EMAIL PROTECTED] snfilter]# chmod 600 snfrv2r3.snf
[EMAIL PROTECTED] snfilter]#

i was using the setup info from
http://sortmonster.com/MessageSniffer/Help/UserScripts/Readme_Postfix.txt

groupadd -g 93 snfilter
useradd -g 93 -u 93 -c "Spam Filter" -d /bin/false -s /bin/false snfilter
chown snfilter /var/spool/snfilter /var/spool/snfilter/msg
cd /var/spool/snfilter
chown snfilter sniffer snfrv2r3.exe snfrv2r3.snf
chmod 500 snfrv2r3.exe sniffer
chmod 600 snfrv2r3.snf



does any one know why this isn't working for me?
or know of some commands that would work for insted of useradd?

thanks in advance for your time!
