Re: Feedback on lsb fhs test suite

[Andrew Josey <ajosey@rdg.opengroup.org>]

And one more thought (btw I like to parameterize and script all
setup so its repeatable)

If you plan to run the VSX-PCTS tests, the requirements for setting
up the user and groups are a little more onerous (due to the
fact that it tests the groups and uid functionality), ie you need
to setup three users and three groups, and put the vsx0 user
in the maximum number of supplementary groups.

Attached is a script using useradd and groupadd to set up
the correct groups under RH6.0 . Note that in this example
it uses ksh as the default shell (i usually install the
the pdksh, that's just a personal preference, i expect that the
default bash should also do fine apart from the echo \c usage,
we should probably update the script to use printf which is more
portable).

regards
Andrew
