Okay, I'll try changing adduser to useradd. I noticed that too myself but didn't
change it because redhat 7.3 has a 'adduser' command symbolically linked to
'useradd'.

After changing all occurances of 'adduser' to 'useradd', still getting the same
error.
 
[root at mars scponly-3.8]# ./setup_chroot.sh
this script requires the program useradd or pw to add your chrooted scponly user.

This is the line where its failing, not sure why

--------------------------------------------------------
USE_PW=0;
if [ x/usr/sbin/useradd = x ]; then
        USE_PW=1;
else 
    if [ x = x ]; then
        echo "this script requires the program useradd or pw to add your"
        fail "chrooted scponly user."
    fi
fi

| | Hammad,
| | 	My bad.  It's not "change pw to passwd", it's "change adduser to
| useradd".
