adding users
Hello everyone, I am new to linux and was going through some tutorials.
When I created my first user, his dir shows up in /home, but when I created my 2nd and 3rd user, their directories dont show up in /home.
Why is this? When I log in with the 2nd and 3rd user and it logs in and is functional but there is a message saying "No directory, logging in with HOME=/"
Thanks in advance for the help.

adduser --home /path/to/home/dir username
for an existing user you can use usermod
usermod -d /path/to/home/dir username
