Hi,

I accidentally removed the man page for the "useradd" command and I've tried re-installing the man pages from the CD but it didn't replace the missing file. Can anyone tell me how I can replace the missing section?
Thanks

Mmm, not too sure on this but on my debian system the man page for useradd is at /usr/share/man/man8/useradd.8.gz try copying the file useradd.8.gz to there and run mandb.

That's where I deleted it from. The file useradd.8.gz is gone. I haven't been able to find it anywhere else on my system.
Any other suggestions?
