- I found my own answer to this one: The nu program does not communicate an
- error to the user when it cannot create the new user's home directory (due to
- permissions, for ex.), but instead produces an error at a later point in the
- process when it attempts to access files that it has supposedly copied into
- that directory.
-
- This is relatively minor, but it would be nice if there were a bit more error
- checking done.
